Message Box WITH a checkbox possible?

[NewsArchive]

Hi Friedrich,

I use "Display Message Box" to show a message and I would like to have a
checkbox on this message box, for example:
[ ] Don't show this message anymore

Is that possible or do you have another idea/example?

Unfortunately, the MessageBox Windows API does not have this capability.

What you could try to do is create your own window in Clarion (or Visual
Studio, etc.) and then compile a DLL and call it from the installer.

Jeffrey, you can use Messagebox template from Capesoft - there you can
have the 'don't show this again'

Hi Piet,

Thanks, I know that, but it would be nice if SB had something like that so
that I don't have to make a helper tool in Clarion.

Problem is that the Windows MessageBox API does not support this at all. I
assume that the Messagebox template from Capesoft displays a Dialog and
*not* a MessageBox. From the technical point-of-view, completely different
animals.

You could build one in a small DLL that is installed and then use the
Call DLL Function in your script.
