I apologize if I gave you the wrong impression. I didn't intend for you to change anything. I was just wondering if it could already be done and I was missing it. I really like Gambas and have been enjoying the learning experience. Thanks for creating it. Benoît Minisini wrote: > You get a poi

I've been messing with creating a custom control in Gambas3. I've read the documentation at: http://gambasdoc.org/help/dev/gambas I've looked at some of the source code for FileView and other components. I've even made my first one but it needs improving. Is there any other documentation someo

Thanks for the info, Doriano. That's good to know if I ever need to develop something for Slackware. Toni, it's not a big deal and I appreciate the help. I'm just playing around right now getting familiar with the IDE, and so forth. It's been awhile since I've programmed in Basic. Toni Rosa wr

Yep, that did the trick. Thanks, Toni. By the way, I was mistaken about the error given for the Slackware package. It says "tar 1.13 is missing". I think I recall reading somewhere that I would have to downgrade the version of tar that comes on the machine but I'm not going to worry about it. I

Howdy, everyone. I've been using Gambas for about a month but only joined the list about a week ago. I've really enjoyed playing around with Gambas. I used Windows (as well as Linux) and was a VB programmer (among other languages) for years until I finally couldn't take it anymore and ditched
