Hi Razzak,

I copied and pasted as you asked. I even copied and pasted very basic dialogs 
out of the help PDF and it does not seem to want to run a dialog. 


Thank you, Have a great day!!

Bill,

Assuming that the vCont1 is a TEXT value, try the very basic example as follows 
(Just Copy and Paste the Code):

-- Start here ...
SET VARIABLE vCont1 TEXT = NULL
SET VARIABLE vEndKey TEXT = NULL

CLS
DIALOG 'Edit Student Pricing' vCont1 = 4 vEndKey 1 + CAPTION 'Please enter 
student Code' ICON INFO + OPTION MESSAGE_FONT_COLOR 2147483647 +
|MESSAGE_BACK_COLOR -16777201 +
|MESSAGE_FONT_NAME MS Sans Serif +
|MESSAGE_FONT_SIZE 10|TRANSPARENCY 255 + WINDOW_BACK_COLOR -16777201
CLS
EDIT USING contracts WHERE RCode = .vCont1 RETURN
-- End here

Note:

1. Pre-define all variable with correct data types

2. Add a pipe "|" character for all additional OPTION parameters

Hope that helps!

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.
