Embarassed

I seem to have forgotton and stumped on how to get my text file into an EDIT dialog window and to word wrap, I tried below but my text is carbled or messed up and all in 1 line(no wrap).

I tried many variations like below:

Code:
DIALOG ADD,EDIT,edit1,87,40,371,120,,,wrap

LIST CREATE,1
list loadfile,1,c:\path\text.txt
REM    list append,edit1,1
dialog set,edit1,@text(1)
REM   dialog set,edit1,1
REM   dialog set,edit1,@text(1)
LIST CLOSE,1


I tried the LIST dialog control but it has no WRAP feature and the lines go past my scroll limits.

Maybe I should sleep more Rolling Eyes

You fou forgot to make your edit element "multi"... It's hard to wrap on a single line... Wink

Why don't someone just shoot me Rolling Eyes

I started out with the Multi and couldnt get anything to work, I must have forgot to put it back.
Now I can REM out the ol' VDSOBJ lines, I like EDIT better than RICHEDIT in what I'm doing here.

The below works great now:
Code:
DIALOG ADD,EDIT,edit1,87,40,371,120,,,wrap,MULTI,scroll

  LIST CREATE,1
  list loadfile,1,c:\path\text.txt
  dialog set,edit1,@text(1)
  LIST CLOSE,1

I never was much of a wrapper anyways Wink

Thanks a kaaZillion Hooligan, I appreciate you pulling me outta stupidville.

cherrios Very Happy
