Perfect...thanks. Need to add that to the documentation I guess...

Ive looked through the forum on an answer to this but can't seem to find anything conclusive. When using printersetup(), and the user presses "Cancel" button, the print job will continue...seems there is no return from printersetup()...is this still the case? Ive lived with this just as a ...

Problem is solved thanks to everyone's help! I downloaded Pelles C that allows me to use just the .rc file for GUI design (ResEdit uses a binary file and then saves as RC after finishing). The only thing I had to do was a search and replace in the .rc file replacing "listbox" with "tw...

Thanks Stefan. I actually looked at that a while back but the download I did had malware attached. Do you have a good download link?

James...thanks again! I will have time this weekend to try these suggestions and will let you know how it works out.

I'll experiment with that and see what I can get to work. I'll probably just wait and edit the .rc file when I have finished updating dialogs and then go from there.

ResEdit will not load a native .rc file...it uses .res binary file and then creates an .rc file. I guess I need to switch to a different resource editor that will use native .rc file. Borland? I recall using Borland years ago and switched because of some problems I had with it...institutional memory...

Thanks for all the good info! I will try this in the next few days. I guess it will just boil down to some extra work to manage the .rc file when I make screen changes....sigh.

Yes I have looked at that but haven't delved into it very deeply. Not sure how to save custom control parameters in ResEdit. I'll look into that. If anyone uses ResEdit and can help, much appreciated!

Im sure I will have to be more imaginative in how to deal with editing the resources. As I am continually updating the application using the RESEDIT GUI to build or change dialogs, when RESEDIT creates the .rc file, I would have to go in manually each time to change all of the LISTBOX structures as ...

Will do...I appreciate the advice.

James, I really appreciate your work on this! I guess I just need to switch over to the xbrowse class. Just as a quick test I replaced my #include from tcbrowse to xbrowse and recompiled. I had one module error where I use an actual BROWSE and just commented it out to recompile and see what I get. N...

Ahhh...Never Mind....found it....CAPTION

James, Here is the Listbox line in the .rc file: LISTBOX 1003, 15, 45, 336, 152, WS_TABSTOP | WS_VSCROLL | LBS_NOINTEGRALHEIGHT | LBS_NOTIFY I have tried several permutations from resources with no change in behavior. Oddly enough I can't get it to show NO SCROLL either....its just consistently show...
