I'm trying to migrate a script from VDS 5 to 6. When I use "DIALOG POPUP" the popup shows but when I click on an item I get an error saying it cannot create the dialog element. Since it's actually a VDS 5 script I'm not using any of the advanced features of th element.

eg. DIALOG POPUP,Item1|Item2|-|Item3...etc

When in the IDE the Type is set to VDS 6 Standard Executable I get the error but when set to VDS 5 Standard Executable it works fine.

Anyone else had this issue??

I figured it out. One of the items in the menu had a colon ( : ) in it. Unfortunatley, even putting quotes around it didn't fix it.

Hi Aslan,

I had same problem with it.
Unfortunately a colon symbol belongs to range of control signs - it separates a name and text of menu item...

Ya, I just wish that like other controls putting quotes around it causes the control to ignore it as a control character.

BTW- using @chr ( 58 ) for the colon didn't work either.

Yes, I know - I tryied even control strings like those with escape (\something) - but "Menu" withstood me Very Happy
