Passing A Parameter to A DialogBox 1

[MrProgrammer]

Hello again,

I created a dialog box named TOKRightDlg. I want to pass a parameter to this dialog box when I call it. Is it possible??

 

[LoneRanger123]

what code are u using to call the box?

 

[MrProgrammer]

First I tried to use the classical expression "OKRightDlg->Show();". But this is not what want to. For example, is there something like "OKRightDlg->Execute(SomeParameter);" ?

Perhaps you could create a public function with the paramaters you want, then call Show() from within that function, for example:

// TOKRightDlg's .h file
class TOKRightDlg : public TForm
{
__published:
  // stuff
private:
  // stuff
public:
  bool Execute(AnsiString ExampleParamater);
  // stuff
}

// TOKRightDlg's .cpp file
bool TOKRightDlg::Execute(AnsiString ExampleParamater)
{
// do some stuff with the paramater
if (OKRightDlg->ShowModal() == mrOk)
  return true;
else
  return false;
}

Then, when you want to call the dialog box, use

if (OKRightDlg->Execute("Something"))
  // do something

OKRightDlg->Tag = test;
OKRightDlg->Show;

OKRightDlg->onshow test for tag = what;

"test" is previously defined.
