-- -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] This is an interesting refinement. Thank you for sharing it. I like the idea but would like to go one step farther. Is it possible to find the location of a field on the screen? Not the cursor location, but rather the field itself? I ask this because I also have the dropdown box appear in an error situation and the cursor is not often in the field when an error has been made so row&column of the cursor is not helpful in that instance. --------------------------------------------------------- Booth Martin http://www.MartinVT.com Booth@MartinVT.com --------------------------------------------------------- -------Original Message------- From: midrange-l@midrange.com Date: Saturday, January 19, 2002 04:23:18 PM To: midrange-l@midrange.com Subject: Re: window subfile Booth, Joe put you on the right track, but I would like to expand a little as to the way we have locatable windows. First we return the cursor location when someone wants a popup and use that as parameters to the window program itself. Within the window program, unfortunately we have the window number of rows and columns hardcoded, and check the incoming parameters against the window size to make sure that it is within the 24x80 viewable area and adjust accordingly. This way, if a change is made in pgmA display location the popup will automagically relocate itself. hth > -------Original Message------- > > From: midrange-l@midrange.com > Date: Saturday, January 19, 2002 01:14:22 PM > To: midrange-l@midrange.com > Subject: RE: window subfile > > > From: Booth Martin > > > > The problem is this: I can't figure out how to have the window display > > under different locations on the screen, depending upon which program is > > displaying the blank line. _______________________________________________ -- [ Content of type image/gif deleted ] --
