Message Box

Hello everyone,

If anyone knows how to use parameter in message box. For example I want to write the same staff like: "Please enter: " many places in the program then when I write the message box I send the parameter after "Please enter:". Is it possible to do this? if so please tell me how to do.

Maybe this is what you mean ?

Procedure MyMessage(pTxt)

Info("Pease enter: " + pTxt)



Call in your program:

If Edt_Name = "" THEN
MyMessage("Name")
END


Is this what you want to do ?

Nice tips...........

Thank you too:rp:

Hi LeoVote,

Thanks for your reply.

I would like to store several messages to a resource file but I don't know where to keep those messages in Windev that allow me to call them to use, Here are some messages example:

- %1 is required.
- Are you sure to %1?
- %1 is invalid.
- %1 must be earlier than %2.

Where: %1, %2 are parameters

I want to use above messages and pass the parameter to it, Is it possible to do like this in Windev? As I don't want to write the same message many times.

Thanks in advance,

Have a good day,

Cherry

The Windev function BuildString() does exactly what you want.
You'll find it in the manual and in the help.

> I would like to store several messages to a resource file

Use a hyperfile or XML file. Write a small Global Procedure that you can pass parms to.

... sorry, StringBuild() it is.
(ou ChaîneConstruit() en Français)

Thanks for your replies. I'll try to do and will let you know
