[gme-users] modeless dialog box

[Rajesh Sudarsan]

Hi Peter,
Thanks for the reply. I have one other question. In the Find utility in
GME, when you double click on the results, the corresponding component
opens up. Is it possible to implement the same feature from a plug-in
using BON?

Regards,
Rajesh

Generally, it is not recommended to create a non-modal dialog box in
your
component:
- in a plug-in or in an interpreter it is prohibited to create such a
window
because of the general flow of control in such components. After
returning
from your component (InvokeEx() returns) there should be no interpreter
windows lingering around.
- you might create a modeless window in an BON2 add-on, but I don't have
too
much experience with this

The second part of your question is not GME releated but a general MFC
issue:
