I am using PRC-Tools and just D/L'd the CW demo but did not find any "memopad
tutorial". I'm guessing that the tutorial you are referring to uses the
CategorySelect API. I want to use MY OWN interface for creating categories, but the
only API(s) I can find are for renaming/deleting an existing category
[CategorySetName()].
I want my code to follow this pseuedocode:
if (Exists(MyCategory))
{
useCat = MyCategory;
}
else
{
if (CategorySlotAvail)
{
CreateCategory(MyCategory);
useCat = MyCategory;
}
else
{
useCat = Unfiled;
}
}
I've seen this functionality used when exporting stuff to Memopad from Plucker and (I
think) Avantgo. Does anyone have the Plucker source?
