The old addage, a little knowledge is dangerous. . . . well, the parameters for the MESSAGEBOX() functions can be found in the FOXPRO.H file. I believe that these can be changed and supplemented but I haven't been brave enough or desperate enough to want to do that. However, I believe that you can call those functions and UDF functions out of similar "h" files that would be specific to classes you would create for your applications.

HTwets your appetite,
