Hi
Rain,
Thanks for sharing that... good to know.
Hi
Marcus,
On searching the Help File just for the
& character... I find... it won't let you. & must be a special character to the chm help as well.
I searched in other ways and the only references I could find in the Help file as to the special meaning and use of & was in the Help topics on the GetCheckBox and SetCheckBox commands, for example:
Help File wrote:SetCheckBox
SetCheckBox>window_title,object_caption,TRUE|FALSE
SetCheckBox is used to check or uncheck a given checkbox or radio button. Specify the window title of the window containing the check box/radio button, and the object's caption. The caption of a check box or radio button is the text appearing next to it. The caption must be specified accurately with attention paid to case. Where a letter is underlined indicating a shortcut key, enter the '&' character before it.
I am imagining you might have a list for updates to Help file topics. If so, would you consider adding a note in the "Dialog" topic about this special character? i.e. to display the & char as part of a label, use &&...
...and thanks for your continuing efforts in keeping the Help file up-to-date.
P.S. If "&&" is already covered in the Help file somewhere, please let me know where.
