>>>Hi,
>>>
>>>I am trying to find a message(s) discussing how to center a WAIT WINDOW command in a VFP window. I would be very surprised if this has never been discussed or brought up. But no matter what I enter in the UT Search, I cannot find a thread. What would you enter in the UT Search to find such a message(s)?
>>>
>>>TIA
>>
>>Using Sergey Berezniker's code I can place the WAIT WIND almost exactly where I want. But I have to do a trial and error a few times. It would be nice if I could get the value of the length of the string to be shown in WAIT WIND. For example, say my string is "Please wait". Is there a way to calculate the width (or a length) in Foxels of this string?
