To clarify exactly what you will need to do...
Either
1) Create an Alert resource with ^1 ^2 ^3 in the message field and use
FrmCustomAlert() to pass in three strings (one for each number in the
message field) to display on your alert.
-or-
2) Use WinDrawChars() to draw a string wherever you want on your form.
See the Palm OS SDK Reference for details on using either of these methods.
