MSGBOX function

[Steve Johnson Member Find all posts View Profile Close Steve Johnson]

I'm looking to put a yes/no message box -- here is what I am using:

lResult& = MSGBOX("Do you want a printout",%MB_YESNO, "test")

Even the example from the help won't work:

lResult& = MSGBOX("Overwrite registry file?", %MB_OKCANCEL OR %MB_DEFBUTTON2 OR %MB_TASKMODAL, "Critical Warning")

I have come to the conclusion that I need to download one of the equates from the WIN32API.INC file.

Am I correct? Can you suggest which file should be downloaded and used? Or am way off target?

Thanks.
Steve

#include ... duh sorry about that.

You need to #INCLUDE "WIN32API.INC", which is supplied with the compilers. Alternatively you could copy/paste the necessary equates from WIN32API.INC into your program, but you may as well just #INCLUDE the whole thing 'cause you never know what you'll need next.

Don't feel bad Steve, its the end of the week, and after the holidays. Everyone is bound to have a "Brain Cramp" from time to time.
