hello friends,

i wish to put fields, buttons and fixed text on a dialog built by a macro.

the location will be automatically calculated, based on the width of the labels
and fixed text, and given width of the input fields. same with combo boxes and
column widths of a grid.

how can i measure the width taken by a given text string, preferable in ma 
units?

thanks in advance,
alex
