http://www.news2news.com/vfp/?function=-1&example=504I wonder how does one clear it if there is no command window?
As for the 4096 as a parameter, an example that would work is...
=MESSAGEBOX("hello",4096) ?
"Build a man a fire, and he's warm for a day.
Set a man on fire, and he's warm for the rest of his life."
