If WTL can be used for this, then I can do it easily.  I've done a lot of 
Windows SDK stuff lately direct without MFC in any event.

  I'm on vacation next Wednesday, however, so I don't know how fast I can do 
it.

  I have done some Moray development too, so I may even be somewhat familiar 
with some of the data structures, in a small way.  This should be all GUI 
stuff though.
