Hellow Warren,
Thanx for your input,
BUT, I guess I did not make myself clear enough.
As you know, mapbasic comes with several handlers such as
SelChangedHandler, WinClosedHandler, and one of them is called
"TOOLHANDLER". By placing this procedure within your program and run
it, you can find a new button cretead in Main Button Pads.
What this "ToolHandler" Button enables me is to find which column on
Browser user clicked by issuing
CommandInfo(CMD_INFO_X). After finding which column user clicked, I can
resort the browser.
As you know, one cannot change button icon after it is created ("Alter
button" command), but to recreate the whole buttonpad again.
And I would like to change this "TOOLHANDLER" created within "Main Button
Pad" button's Icon to my custom icon so that user would know imidiately
that there is an additional button newly created and came with my
program.
I need to know How I can possibly change this "TOOLHANDLER" icon.
Is this clear enough?
If I am correct, I cannot create a custom button that tells me which
column user clicked on browser window. When I create a custom button, I
can only find which ROWID user clicked on browser window. If you issue
CommandInfo(CMD_INFO_X), you get "0" as an answer. The only way to find
which column user clicked, I have to use "TOOLHANDLER" Procedure call.
Just in case this seems a bit confusing, try creating a program similar
to below and run it. Notice there is a new button in Main ButtonPad
--------------------
Declare Sub Main
Declare Sub ToolHandler
Sub Main
End Sub
Sub ToolHandler
End Sub
----------------------
Is this clear enough?
Let me know
Yas

The syntax for the ToolButton creation includes an optional "icon ..."
clause. Take a look in
ICONS.DEF and look-up the block of definitions starting with MI_ICON_.
The
options are pretty
self-explanatory.
