Mode less dcl dialog

Hi all

I am new to DCL. I would like to make modeless dcl dialog. Is there any option to make dcl dialog mode less?

Thanks in advance,

Kumar.

What do you mean by modeless dcl dialog ?

I have not heard about modeless with dcl.

Could you explain it a little bit more ?

Thanks Kerry.

These links are really very helpful, and this is the first time that I see the procedure of Open DCL.

I would read that and rise up any question that may come up.

Highly appreciated.

Probably best to ask questions at the OpenDCL forum or at theSwamp ... I don't think many here use OpenDCL.

Be sure to look at and run the samples.

The current version is stable, so you can use that, ie 6.0.1.1

Thanks allot.

I have not heard about modeless with dcl.

Just to clarify for you: a modeless dialog is one that may remain on screen when focus is shifted to other items (an example would be the properties tool palette behaviour), hence a dialog that does not require the user to close it before interacting with anything else. The opposite is a modal dialog which doesn't allow the user to switch focus until it is closed.

With standard DCL, only a modal dialog can be created.

Thank you so much Lee.

Your explanations are greatly appreciated.

I would read the reference and do the examples that given by Kerry, and certainly that would be a matter of

coming up questions to the forum very soon.

Thanks again for your time.
