generation of warning message form

Hi I have tried designing a warning message form, but the problem was i could not reduce the size of the form …that is when i run the form it is shown with default form settings covering the entire work area. can we generate a warning message form? kumar

I am not sure what you mean. But if the user have maximized the window, all forms will be maximized. BUT if you set Maximizedallowed = No Minimizeallowed = No on the FORM, the form will NOT maximize (as far as I remember) //Henrik Helgesen -: KISS::Keep it Simple, Stupid :-

Look into the WIDTH, HEIGHT, XPOS, YPOS functions that can be used to manipulate the form during runtime. Just a thought Taylor McCartney Development Specialist CSB Systems tmccartney@csbsystems.com

For warining messages the best you can use is the CONFIRM command: example: IF (CONFIRM(‘Warning, this process will destroy all data.\Do you want to continue?’,FALSE)) THEN DestroyAllData(); Regards Alfonso Pertierra (Spain)apertierra@teleline.es
