Messagebox function
|
This is a sample of some message box code, I want to put "the time is currently..." on the next line. Does anyone know how to begin a new line in a message box.
MESSAGEBOX("Good Evening @USERID , the time is curently @TIME am","Welcome Message",0,8)
PS if someone could also tell me how display your own custom icon that would be cool too.

You could use the @CRLF macro to insert a 'new line' or use the CHR(13)+CHR(10) combination which would create the same effect.
Thus:
code:And no, you cannot use custom icons unless you start hacking the appropriate resource files for the message box.$rc=MESSAGEBOX('Good Evening @USERID,'+@CRLF+'the time is curently '+@TIME,'Welcome Message',0,8)

That's also something you'll ahve to do manually. Though, you could write a custom UDF for this that centers a string.
