Feels like Friday not Monday.
Actually, now that I look at this, I asked for something that I did not
need help with. Got my subjects mixed up. Thanks to all for quick
responses to my other question but...
What I meant to ask for was not a Are Sure Dialog but a prompting dialog
that returns a single field value. Maybe FrmDoDialog will work. I have
several functions that I wish to pause and wait for parameter input.
So, I need a dialog to do that. I was using FrmPopupForm() but that
does not pause and wait. Code after FrmPopupForm() is executed before
form is closed.
I guess FrmDoDialog might work. I would have thought that any form that
was a Modal form would wait but I guess not.
