How would I center this on the user's screen? constant Window_Install = createEx( Window, "Forms On-A-Disk AutoInstall", 0, Default, Default, 450, 250, 0, 0 )

sequence ScreenSize ScreenSize = getCtlSize(Screen) constant ScreenWidth = ScreenSize[1], ScreenHeight = ScreenSize[2], Window_Install = createEx(Window,"Parcheesi",0,ScreenWidth/2-225,(ScreenHeight/2-125,450,250,0,0) C.

Oops. Obviously the window caption should have been "Forms On-A-Disk AutoInstall" and that ( in the middle shouldn't be there. :-[ 1evan at sbcglobal.net wrote: > ScreenSize = getCtlSize(Screen) > constant > ScreenWidth = ScreenSize[1], > ScreenHeight = ScreenSize[2], > Window_Install = > > createEx(Window,"Parcheesi",0,ScreenWidth/2-225,(ScreenHeight/2-125,450,250,0,0) > > > C.

As long as the width and length are even numbers you can do this ... constant Window_Install = createEx( Window, "Forms On-A-Disk AutoInstall", 0, {1,-wid}/2, {1,-hgt}/2, wid, hgt, 0, 0 ) If either are odd numbers you can do this ... constant Window_Install = createEx( Window, "Forms On-A-Disk AutoInstall", 0, {0.5,floor(-wid/2)}, {0.5,floor(-hgt/2)}, wid, hgt, 0, 0 ) ---------------- cheers, Derek Parnell ----- Original Message ----- From: "C.

CK has over 4000 lines of code to work with "that I wrote for him". If he cant figure it out then he really should ask me.... Im stuck on registry and ntfs code because Its rather hard. I am learning that the users of 2k, NT4, and XP + mainly the pro editions require the user to be logged on as administrators. and this posses some issues.
