cases.
Here is a common case...
Declare a fixed length asciiz string and pass the...
Thanks Kryton - I think I am already hooked :)
Thats a great example of the way ThinBasic can do complex tasks with a simple script.
I learn much faster from examples like this than reading dry documentation. I was attracted in the

As a ThinBasic newbie I hope I have not missed something here

Hi Sandy
No I just clicked on the sample file in the install directory...
C:\thinBasic\SampleScripts\UI\Common\Dialog_ChooseColor.tBasic
I am using Win 2k. But I also just tried it on a machine with XP. Same problem.

Dialog_ChooseColor function. Although the problem appears AFTER the function
ends and the Message Box is...
Very Clever!! Yes Thin Air recognises the RESET keyword now. Thanks Eros :)
Wonderful - You succeeded again Eros !
LISTBOX RESET now works fine. I will look out for the keyword highlighting in the next
Thin Air release.
Thanks for the speedy fix.
I am trying to use LISTBOX RESET exactly as shown in the Help Manual...
listbox reset hDlg, %IDC_LISTBOX1
There is no Syntax highlighting or auto capitalisation in Thin Air IDE for RESET ...
Sorry folks- Just 48 hours into a new language and I am still trying to soak up the documentation.

I just knew it was some basic mistake but...
Hi Petr
