Nothing against BLUE GUI or the chap who made it but...
I was using another language, IBasic, the other day and it called
'system32.dll' and used windows applications from there.
All I am saying is why spend money on something you can make for free?
As of yet I haven't got used to DLL calls in DB but IBasic is older
and not as good as Dark Basic so I am sure it is possible.
If someone works it out before me then please let me know.

The reason being you can do it using bluegui in a minute and hardly any lines of code or in several hours and an awful lot of code.
Write the code that will put a button on a db window that quits the program when you click it and post the code here.
This is the code to do it in bluegui



i won't see you in the pit

Try 'set window on`.
The window automatically has an exit button aswell as minimize and restore.
