Hmm. I don't have gb2 on my machine anymore, so I can't tell why it isn't centered. Btw: you should update to gb3, it's much better!
Example code for a ShowModal window: Create a form FMain with just two buttons (btnCancel and btnInput). Then create a form FInput with the Text "What's your name?", a TextBox (TextBox1) and two buttons (btnCancel and btnOK). The FMain code is: Public Sub Form_Open() Me.Center End Public Sub btnCancel_Click() Me.Close End Public Sub btnInput_Click() FInput.ShowModal If Me.Tag = "" Then Print "User has cancelled." Else Print "The name is " & Me.Tag & "." Endif End The FInput code is: Public Sub btnCancel_Click() FMain.Tag = "" Me.Close End Public Sub btnOK_Click() FMain.Tag = TextBox1.Text Me.Close End Easy, isn't it?
