rem 'Insert items in a vector into a list box control

rem 'Obtain the instance of the BBjAPI object
let myAPI! = BBjAPI()

rem 'Open the SysGui device
SYSGUI = UNT
OPEN (SYSGUI) "X0"

rem 'Obtain the instance of the BBjSysGui object
let mySysGui! = myAPI!.getSysGui()

rem 'Set addWindow param values
X = 10
Y = 10
WIDTH = 200
HEIGHT = 200
TITLE$="BBj Window"

rem 'Set the current context
mySysGui!.setContext(0)

rem 'Create a window
myWindow! = mySysGui!.addWindow(X,Y,WIDTH,HEIGHT,TITLE$)

rem 'Add a list box control to the window
myListBox! = myWindow!.addListBox(101,50,100,90,60,"",$0000$)

rem 'Make a vector that will contain list items
myVector! = mySysGui!.makeVector()

rem 'Insert items into the vector
FOR I = 1 TO 4
    ITEM$="ITEM " + STR(I)
    myVector!.addItem(ITEM$)
NEXT I

rem 'Insert items in the vector into the list box control
myListBox!.insertItems(0,myVector!)

rem 'Register the CALLBACK routines
