user window during lisp

I have an extensive lisp routine developed.
I would like to activate a series of commands, one of them involves opening a window for user input. The basis AutoCAD commands to follow are not dependant on the information specified in the window (or series of window. I would like to initiate the rest of the commands, when the windowed command is completed. I hope this is clear, any thoughts?
Cheers all

 

I think you are talking about dialog boxes?

You need to look into DCL language in the help files. There are many examples there.

What type of user input are you looking for?

I am familiar with dialogue boxes, and this is not the case. These windows have been designed by AutoCAD. I was hoping to initate the window, click a bunch of stuff. Then when I hit "OK" the command is done and now I can initiate the commands I need to complete my task. Thanks for being quick in the response, any thoughts.

 

Oh,

Are you talking VB?

I can't think of anything like that in Autolisp or Vlisp.

What "windows"? A selection window, an AutoCAD dialog box, a tool palette,
an application window, a message box, a window block in ADT ?. Does it have
a title to it?

well, we can a bit snarky now, can't we.

PAUSE did the trick.
My apologies
thanks anyway

At times yes.
But in order to help we need to know what your are asking for and help on.

Then good. Glad you found the answer.
