Hi Wilfried I have added halert to the vc file and the hbmk2 hbm. I do agree with Itamar that perhaps these functions would be better under contrib, but I leave it to your judgment. Thank you. Regards Alex

Hi Actually it needs a few more changes than that. I have attached makefile.vc file after a succesful build. I can't actually link with the lib created. There is a link error with the library which I don't get with the hbmk2 build. I tried to discover what the difference could be but I couldn't see it and gave up. Regards Alex

Hi Wilfried I ran my batch file to run the VC build (attached), and it seems the make file is not correct: d:\dev\hwgui-code>bld_hwgui_vcmake.bat d:\dev\hwgui-code>call "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 x86 tools.

Hi Wilfried I am very happy if you make those changes. I used to use Clip4Win and I guess CenterWindow was part of it (1993!). It agree it would be better if you rewrote it. Regards Alex

Hi Yes Maurizio, you are right, it is sufficient. So Wilfried I guess you can revert that change, thank you. The example I was going to upload is a some code I use to make a nicer MessageBox that tries to emulate the old Clipper alert() with some bells and whistles. You can now see (if you are interested) where I use the id, and now oCtl:id. I attach the code, a header file and a test app. If you like it I would be thrilled to have it in samples. Regards Alex
