Popup follow-on from yesterday
Well, there is another difference between the msgbox function and popup method as was pointed out to me by several people. Msgbox only displays the first 1024 characters of a dialog whereas popup displays a lot more (I haven't looked to see what the actual limit is although I can certainly fill the screen and more besides). Taking yesterdays script and adding this immediately before the call to msgbox
szMessage = ""
for i = asc("a") to asc("z")
szMessage = szMessage & String(100,i)
next
Msgbox will display
but Popup will display
So now you know, but please, no more emails if there are other differences!
