I have a question about programming in Microsoft Basic on the Mac that
perhaps someone can answer. It should be simple, but it escapes me
nonetheless.
In a program, I am using buttons in the standard fashion:
BUTTON 1,1,"Continue",(245,60)-(330,75),1
WHILE DIALOG(0) <> 1: WEND
buttonpushed = DIALOG(1)
etc.
This puts the button on the screen, and waits for it to be pushed to
continue.
What I need to know is how to write the program so that hitting
<RETURN> will be the same as pressing the button with the mouse. Most
Mac programs do this.
Please email to one of the addresses below. Thanx...
