I have an issue i need to get resolved fast.
I cant seem to get my Dialog box to run properly.
This is the code i have for it.

The Problems i have are where the black arrows are.

First arrow: "No matching prototype available
Second and third arrow: "Invalid variable data parameter type"
Fourth arrow: " Too many parameters"

I cant think of what the problem could be.
PLEASE HELP.!

That doesn't look like any C code I've ever seen. Wrong forum?

Hi

DOSRetCode = FILEDIALOG(DOSDialogHeader ,DOSTargetVariable,DOSExtParameter ,0)

is the correct code NOT

DOSRetCode = GetOpenSaveFile1(►TARGET{PROP:Handle},►DOSDialogHeader,DOSTargetVariable,►DOSExtParameter,DOSFileNameVar,0,►1)

Kind Regards

Ben
