[Ghost]

High i have a simple smart dialog.

Employee_List (Function)/Dialog

function# hDlg message wParam lParam
if(hDlg) goto messages

;* - not necessary in QM >= 2.1.9

Is there a way that when i type the name into the box and hit enter that it will save the Employees First name?
If you could help me with this code that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a ton!

Where do you want the information stored at? In the white space below? In a dropdown list?

Yes i want to make it so that when i type my text into the id box 1000 and hit enter it will store the Name into the id 1001. Is there a way to do that?

[Ghost]

Yes the dropdown list*

This uses button + instead of Enter.

The dialog you posted Gin works perfectly

but i am having trouble doing one modification to it

when i close it, i want to rset the data in the combo

and when i open it back up i want to rget it and put it in the combo

but when it closes i dont know how to get the data, getwintext doesn't work for me

do you think you could modify your example to do that?

Thanks so much

Thank you, that was perfect

[PleaseHelp]

Can the names be inserted into an array and then be sorted so you can print or out the names in an alphabetical order or be placed in a phone book (like Notepad) by alphabetical order?

[redbull2k]

u can sort the names out in the combo by setting the style in dialog editor to CBS_SORT then contents in combo will be sorted

[Gintaras]

Code:

Copy      Help

,case IDOK
,int j h=id(3 hDlg); str s1
,ARRAY(str) a
,for j 0 CB_GetCount(h)
,,CB_GetItemText h j s1
,,a[]=s1
,a.sort(2)
,s1=a
,out s1
,rset s1 "cb" "\test\test"

That is so rad thanks

Is there any way to incorporate the three new options so that they will be outed with the employee name?

OK trying this on my own. How can you tell witch option out of 3 has been selected?

Example:
Option first
Option next
Option next

if (option first is selected)
out "Option 1 is selected"
if (option next is selected)
out "Option 2 is selected"
if (option next is selected)
out "Option 3 is selected"

[PleaseHelp]

I am just learning but I am getting farther away than I wanted to in understanding arrays and my first question about including the option buttons (will call back) and (no message) and (wants you to call).

I have this but something about the states with option 2 and 3 do not work.

as I said I am probably taking the long way around understanding arrays but maybe I will learn something this way.

[PleaseHelp]

I found this and it seams to be a very quick way of seeing if a option is selected. I will play with it and see if I can put it in the array.

Macro

Code:

Copy      Help

if(but(id(3 win("Dialog" "#32770"))))
,out "Yes"
else
,out "No"

[TheVig]

Option Next and Option Next are being seen as the same button by using the Accessible Object. Changing one to Option Next 1 will do the trick...
In the Dialog Defintion:
;4 Button 0x54002009 0x0 10 24 48 12 "Option next1"

And then in your case IDOK:
,Acc o4O=acc("Option next1" "RADIOBUTTON" win("Dialog" "#32770") "Button" "" 0x1001)
,int state2=o4O.State()

[TheVig]

Function Dialog5

Code:

Copy      Help

,case IDOK
,out
,if(but(id(3 win("Dialog" "#32770"))))
,,out "Option first"
,if(but(id(4 win("Dialog" "#32770"))))
,,out "Option Next1"
,if(but(id(5 win("Dialog" "#32770"))))
,,out "Option Next2"

By the way, I don't think this has anything to do with arrays...?!?!

[PleaseHelp]

As I said in my earlier post on this subject I think that you are right and I have decided while my desire is to have an answer my question in this post about options and arrays I will be making a new subject post about arrays and options as soon as I have check the spelling and made the new post as clear as I can.
