Subject: [MI-L] Create Custom Dialog
using MapBasic
Hi
All
Does anyone know
if it is possible to create a MapInfo custom dialog where you pass in the
values and perform a loop to construct the "Control"
options?
I am trying to
dynamically create a dialog by reading an INI file that may state that the
dialog needs 1,2,3,4 or more "Control Edittext" boxes and the "Values" and
"Into Variables" all differ and are set in the INI file.
My problem is that
MapBasic will not compile stating:
"Invalid Dialog
command", and "Unrecognised command : Control"
Does anyone know
how or if a dialog can be created dynamically?
Example of
Code:
'===============================================
DIM i, iPosWidth,
iPosHeight AS INTEGER
DIM sTitle, sValue, sInto AS
STRING
iPosWidth =
10
iPosHeight = 10
sValue = "Type your text
here"
Dialog
Title "My Custom Dialog"
For
i = 1 to 10
sTitle = "Field " +
i
sInto = "sField" +
i
Control
StaticText
width 50 height 10
Position iPosWidth,iPosHeight
Title
sTitle
Control EditText
width 50 height
10
Position iPosWidth,(iPosHeight +
20)
Value sValue Into sInto
next
Control
OKButton
Control CancelButton
'===============================================
Cheers
