HIMEM = PAGE + 5000
INSTALL @lib$ + "WINLIB2"
idClickI% = 0
idBoxDialogI% = 1
idBoxGroupI% = 2
idButtonActionI% = 3
idButtonCancelI% = 4
idBoxEditI% = 5
idBoxDialogI% = FN_newdialog( "<Your dialog box title>", 20, 20, 160,
128, 8, 504 )
PROC_groupbox( idBoxDialogI%, "<Your group box title>", idBoxGroupI%,
4, 4, 152, 96, &20000 )
PROC_pushbutton( idBoxDialogI%, "<Search>", idButtonActionI%, 12,
108, 56, 14, &20001 )
PROC_pushbutton( idBoxDialogI%, "Cancel", idButtonCancelI%, 92, 108,
56, 14, 0 )
PROC_editbox( idBoxDialogI%, "<Your search string>", idBoxEditI%, 12,
20, 64, 12, &80 )
PROC_showdialog( idBoxDialogI% )
ON CLOSE PROC_closedialog( idBoxDialogI% ) : QUIT
ON ERROR PROC_closedialog( idBoxDialogI% ) : PRINT ' REPORT$ : END
ON SYS idClickI% = @wparam% AND &FFFF : RETURN
REPEAT pause% = INKEY( 1 ) : UNTIL ( idClickI% = idButtonActionI% )
OR ( idClickI% = idButtonCancelI% ) OR ( !idBoxDialogI% = 0 )
ON SYS OFF
IF ( idClickI% = idButtonActionI% ) THEN
PRINT "'Search' pressed, settings were : "'
DIM text% 100
SYS "GetDlgItemText", !idBoxDialogI%, idBoxEditI%, text%, 100 TO Len%
text%?Len% = 13
PRINT "Text box contained """$text%""""
