Why won't the following work?

Dear Mr. Wow...

Handles aren't allowed here, only real names. We'd appreciate it if you would re-register accurately. Thanks!

Thanks Jim...you suggestion worked!

In addition to Dave's comments as good coding practice. You are
showing a modal dialog and not calling the icon functions until
after the dialog is destroyed. Move the Dialog Show code AFTER
the icon code.

Did you check the result from LoadImage() to see if it was successful?

Did you check the result from DIALONG SEND to see if it was successful?

{ it's called 'debugging' )

Shouldn't the following code place an icon on a DDT dialog based on the threads I've read? Instead I get my dialog but no icon. What am I doing wrong?


#COMPILE EXE
#INCLUDE "WIN32API.INC"
#INCLUDE "COMDLG32.INC"

FUNCTION PBMAIN () AS LONG

$REGISTER NONE

LOCAL hDlg AS LONG
LOCAL hIcon AS LONG

'Create a new dialog template
DIALOG NEW 0, "blah blah blah...",,,300,50,0,0 TO hDlg

'Display the dialog
DIALOG SHOW MODAL hDlg

'add an icon from a powerbasic sample program
hIcon=Loadimage(BYVAL %Null, BYCOPY "c:\pbdll60\samples\pbnote\pbnote.ico",%Image_icon,0,0,%LR_loadfromfile OR %LR_defaultsize)
DIALOG SEND hDlg,%WM_seticon,%Icon_big,hIcon

END FUNCTION
