| Command |
Description |
| MSG message
|
Displays a message box with the
specified text, and waits for the user to click OK. |
| TIMEDMSG [n] <msg>W |
Displays a message box similar to the
MSG command, but the message disappears automatically after a
specified number of seconds. For example: TIMEDMSG 10 "This message
will disappear automatically after 10 seconds." |
| FONT fontname
[size [style r g b]] |
Changes the current font. Any boxes
created subsequently adopt this font. Follow the keyword with a
name from your Windows font list, followed optionally by (a) font
size in points (default is 8); (b) style from the list below
(default is 0, or plain text); (c) color, as three values for red,
green, blue, each ranging from 0 to 255 (default is 0,0,0, or
black).
Font styles are sums of bold (1), italic (2), and underline (4).
Thus a style value of 1 means bold, 3 means bold+italic, 6 means
italic+underline, and so on.

| SEEPTAB [decisecs] |

window, then closes it. The window will be displayed for the amount
of time specified (1 decisecond = 0.1 second). If the duration is
omitted, it will be displayed for four seconds. |
| QUIETCLOSE |
Closes the active form. This command
is similar to FILE CLOSE, but automatically discards any changes
instead of prompting the user what to do. |

If a subform is active, it returns the subform to form view. |
