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.
