UI_GET_RADIO Function

Syntax

Arguments

title

The title of the dialog box.

default_choice

Determines which radio button is selected when the dialog box first appears. This parameter is a numeric value indicating which choice (from 1 to 8) is to be selected. For example, if the Default Number is 2, the second radio button is selected when the dialog box appears.

choice1

The label for the first radio button.

choice

Optional. Labels for up to seven additional radio buttons.

Description

UI_GET_RADIO() creates and displays a dialog box containing between 1 and 8 radio buttons. Your response is returned as a Result_String that contains the text of the button that you chose when you clicked the dialog box's OK button. This function is useful for obtaining an answer to a multiple choice condition.

Example

For example, a dialog box with four radio buttons can be displayed with the following statement:

ui_get_radio("Four Radio Buttons", 2, "One", "Two", "Three", "Four")

The Result_String will be empty ("") if the Cancel button is selected. Present a list of choices as radio buttons. Only one choice can be selected.

choice = UI_GET_radio("Choose Color",1,"Navy","Wine","Turquoise", "Black","Bone")

If user presses Cancel, end the script.

if choice = "" then
  end
end if
trace.writeln(choice)

Limitations

Desktop applications only.
