WinStudio

DisplayMessage Method

Applies To

IWSFormComponent interface

Definition

Displays a message box. The text of the message can be constructed, in whole or in part, from substitution keywords that are translated into text.

Syntax

object.DisplayMessage( string1, string2 )

Part	Description
object	Required. A reference to a valid component object.
string1	Required. The text of the message to be displayed. The string can include the following substitution keywords: %V or %v – The component's value. %L or %l – The component's label. %1 - %9 – Items in string2.
string2	Required. A comma-delimited list of items referenced by the %1 - %9 substitution keywords in string1. If no substitution keywords are used in string1, use an empty string (`""`) for this string.

Remarks

Before displaying the message contained in string1, WinStudio searches string1 for substitution keywords and replaces them with the corresponding data. The data for %V and %L is found in the component object. The data for %1 - %9 is found in string2.

Example

Sub Main()
   Dim oGrid As IWSFormComponent
   oGrid = ThisForm.Components("StringTableNameGridCol")
   oGrid.DisplayMessage("%1 %L %2 %V.", "The selected, is")
End Sub
