Exactly which error are you getting? Are you by chance creating list 1 twice?

Are you deleting an item from the combobox or list before or after closing
the window?

All I'm doing is grasping for air here Tim. You aren't posting enough code,
only tid bits, which makes it hard to figure what you're trying to do.

Not quite sure what you are trying to accomplish...

However, perhaps you could try saving the list contents to a variable and then clear the list without closing?

Code:

list create,1
list add,Pizza
list add,Rocks!
%%text = @text(1)
list clear,1
list append,1,%%text


If so, then simply use the above and replace any "list close" and "list open" code with "list clear" and "list append"...

Or perhaps something like the following?

Code:

DIALOG CREATE,New Dialog,-1,0,240,160
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,BUTTON1,41,87,64,24,Open Child
DIALOG SHOW
list create,1
list add,1,John
list add,1,Doe
%%text = @text(1)
list close,1
:main
list create,1
list append,1,%%text
rem Do stuff here...
%%text = @text(1)
info %%text
list close,1
goto evloop
:back
info %%text
:evloop
wait event
goto @event()
:button1button
goto child
:close
exit
:child
DIALOG CREATE,Child,-1,0,400,160
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,CLOSE,48,237,64,24,Close
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,text,50,118,64,24,Text
DIALOG SHOW
:child_loop
wait event
%E = @event()
if @equal(%E,close)
goto closebutton
end
goto %E
:closebutton
DIALOG CLOSE
wait event
while @event()
wend
goto back
:textbutton
list create,1
list append,1,%%text
rem Do stuff here...
%%text = @text(1)
info @text(1)
list close,1
goto evloop


Still not sure if this is what you are looking for...

Cheers,

- Boo

hey tim,

not sure if this will help - i have found that to properly close a child dialog, it needs to be active first - say you want to close your child dialog number 2, and then you want to have the focus on your main dialog, then

Code:

dialog select, 2
dialog close
dialog select, 0

hummm yea this is a hard one to explain..what i don't get is that i had ALL the same type of child windows thru out the whole program even the one i'am having troubles with worked intill i added a combo list Sad

i would post the whole code but its big that is why i only posted the code i'am having troubles with..which i understand it is hard to fix it unless you know what the whole program is doing...i think the main problems is i have to have a list create for that combo list to work..i wish i didn't added the combo list but i had to Sad

i have notice also to if i selected a item from the combo list...then if i re-selected from the list i get that error...i think think i know why its becuase the list create is in the first part of the code and not in the combo1click...if ya follow what i mean, and if i try to added a list create to the combo1click then i wll get that list error right away Sad



Code:

:Combo1CLICK
%%heading = @item(1,@index(Combo1))
  goto evloop
