> I DID state that this version ALSO uses my previously presented "newdialogs". No, I dont have those previous version, like I already explained, I have a new computer without saved-backup. Please, Bitte, por favor, if you dont use the "official" last release of MSEgui https://github.com/mse-org/mseide-msegui/releases or some modified units, copy those modified units in the root directory of your project. Then all will be much more easy. Thanks.

This is due to an addition you had suggested a couple subversions ago and not yet instituted: at line 985 in file "msewidgets.pas" // property onmouseevent; // should we not enable it ?

Don't you have them anymore? Then I should upload them anew. There's a completely new dialog included for font selection akin to the kind most applications under X do provide now. It was already there with the previous version of MSEclock (that also requred the "newdialogs"), but is now extended to (as far as I can see) full control of font properties. And I DO suggest the "newdialogs" for consideration for inclusion into msegui, if "only" because I hate dialogs that are nailed on an arbitrary position on the screen. All of your errors except the first one DO arise from this omission. Should I upload the "newdialogs" directory another time? BTW, there's another new dialog, "replacedialogform.pas" (which is really a search or replace dialog), that doesn't have a corresponding implementation among msegui's dialogs. It's included for your examination and for possible inclusion (probabely renamed) into msegui's stock of dialogs. And, in addition, in the meantime I found a - clunky-clumsy - work-around for the posting problem in the database browser application. And I renamed it, because "PSQLcat" doesn't seem a fitting name after all. It's called "PSQLbrowse" now, and all its functions seem to work correctly, as far as I was able to test them. Be warned though: this does ALSO usee my "newdialogs"! BTW, in conjunction with my playing around with this application, I found a problem, if not omission or even error, in the msegui database functions. The issue is that closing a database does NOT correctly, i.e. completely, de-initialize the datasource. Specifically, it does not discard the field data structure built-up for the formerly open database, and on opening another one that has a different field structure it fails, trying to access the old fields again. This is a basic problem, as it originates from the "mdb.pas" unit in the "fpccompatibility" directory. I did not try to tinker with that, but includedd an explicit de-initialization statment, "SQLquery.Fields.Clear;" in my application, although I believe that it does by no means belong there. It took my quite some time to figure out why opening a different table did always fail after any modification of a value in a previously opened table. Although this will not hamper an application only dealing with only one table per data source, it DID bite me for accessing different tables using just one over again. Well, problem solved - but should that be kept so, or was this a candidate for an amendment of the library function? -- (Weitergabe von Adressdaten, Telefonnummern u.ä. ohne Zustimmung nicht gestattet, ebenso Zusendung von Werbung oder ähnlichem) ----------------------------------------------------------- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, S.
