Set !EDIT Value - INPUTD SENDMSG() Function 33

Syntax

TF$=SENDMSG(sysgui,id,33,0,value${,context{,ERR=lineref}})

Description

In BBj 4.00 and higher, this function sets the INPUTD control's !EDIT string and may be necessary to refresh an existing INPUTD control with an updated STBL("!EDIT") string.

Parameter	Description
sysgui	SYSGUI channel.
id	INPUTD control ID.
33	Number of this SENDMSG() function.
0	Always zero.
value$	Edit string, having a maximum of 256 characters.

The !EDIT string is set at initialization and does not automatically reflect changes that occur during the control's lifetime. The control is not subject to the filesystem's device I/O and, therefore, does not recognize function key programming, although Keypress Notify events inform the application when special keys are pressed.

The control does not recognize !EDIT string edit commands that are programmed into function keys for the SYSWINDOW device.
