In addition to answering your question, the incorrectly spelled word "preceed" needs to be replaced.

i copied the message from the feedback dialogue so i guess silverfrost needs to update the text

Hi Guys

I managed to sort out the issue. Th %mi was actually being called twice for the same window. once i deleted the second call the app worked as expected

the clearwin feedback messages may need to be revised to handle this situation

regards

Everybody probably knows this already, but %mi has a side effect, and that is that the icon serves as a pathway into maximising the window, especially from the taskbar when the window is minimised. Hence no a good idea to include it for any dialogs, or for a fixed-size window.

HI
Thanks for the heads up. I was unaware of this side effect. i will explore my dialogs and see what the effects are
