What does your lisp do when it "sees" the expression (+ 1 2) ...and what is the result? You put the expression (display-message my-message "Info Buffer") ...which gets evaluated on-the-spot, and returns... a window! (what you can confirm if you follow the code). So your insert-button invocation places a window in its 'action "place" and tries to call that window as if it were a function. This can't go well. Thus the error message. Once again. Try to wrap your head around the Lisp evaluation model. This will save you a lot of work long-term. Cheers -- t
