PushButton (statement)

Syntax PushButton X,Y,width,height,title$ [,.Identifier]
Description Defines a push button within a dialog box template.
Comments Choosing a push button causes the dialog box to close (unless the dialog function redefines this behavior). This statement can only appear within a dialog box template (that is, between the Begin Dialog and End Dialog statements). The PushButton statement accepts the following parameters:
Parameter Description
X, Y Integer coordinates specifying the position of the control (in dialog units) static to the upper left corner of the dialog box.
width, height Integer coordinates specifying the dimensions of the control in dialog units.
title$ String containing the text that appears within the push button. This text may contain an ampersand character to denote an accelerator letter, such as " &Save " for Save .
.Identifier Name by which this control can be referenced by statements in a dialog function (such as DlgFocus and DlgEnable ).
If a push button is the default button, it can be selected by pressing Enter on a nonbutton control. A dialog box template must contain at least one OKButton , CancelButton , or PushButton statement (otherwise, the dialog box cannot be dismissed).
Example This example creates a bunch of push buttons and displays which button was pushed.
