WAIT WINDOW position?

[DJVisuaL]

How can I make a wait window be in the exact center of the screen? the language reference refers to WAIT WINDOW AT nRow, nColumn but I have tryed several numbers and they dont seem to corespond to pixels or anything I can think of. I also tryed -1,-1 to no avail. If I do play around with it and find what looks like the center on my screen will it stay that way for all resolutions? Somehow I don't think it will. Any help is appreciated! I use VFP6.0 thanks

HI
WAIT WINDOW cMessage AT nRow, nCol
This is the row and column as in FP2.6 Days..
For example..

myRows = SROWS()/2
myCols = SCOLS()/2

WAIT WINDOW "I am now at "+ALLT(STR(myRows))+"," ;
+ALLT(STR(myCols)) AT myRows,myCols

This will work ramani :-9

If you want the windowto be in the "EXACT" middle of the screen then you will have to computer the length of the message and the number of rows. The use Ramani's suggestion.

Or here is a routine you can use.
