David,
The dialog remove problem I had occurred when my dialog box didn't
have an OKButton, which automatically dismisses the dialog, but
rather a series of buttons that represented choices the user could
make. The handler for each of these buttons had a dialog remove
statement in it. However, the dialog was not graphically removed
until I changed the structure of the program as follows:-
-Sub main calls dialog box procedure,
-button handlers contain dialog remove statement and set a variable
indicating which button was selected,
-Sub main then evaluates variable with 'Do Case' and call another sub
procedure which brings up a different dialog box
This worked for me although the easiest way to dismiss your dialog is
with the OKButton if you can.
Hope this helps.
Keith.
