dialog box position

I am trying to controll the start postion of some dialog boxes, i.e. start
them all the way pushed to
one side of the drawing. I figured out how to pass a point to the start
dialog function, but on
different size screens, if I specify a point to far over, the dialog pops up
in the middle again.
Does anyone know how I can determine the maximum size of screen and dialog
and how to calculate
the max position in any one direction? Thanks a million, this one is kicking
my ***.!!

 

Check out the SCREENSIZE system variable.

 

I make the dialog box position user justified by having the user position the
dialog box on the screen. That position is saved to the registry whenever the
action_tile for "exit" or "accept" is used. The next time that dialog box is
opened, the position is read from the last registry entry. The registry entry
changes depending on where the last position of the dialog box was, and if the
user repositioned it.
