Cancel Import

Continue

Choose Cancel Import or Continue. If you choose to continue,
PanelBuilder checks each record in the message file to make sure its
format is valid.

An error message will be displayed if any errors are found. The import will
be cancelled and the messages currently defined in the file will remain
unchanged.

If no errors are found, all the information messages in the application file
will be deleted and replaced by the imported ones.

Exporting Text

Choose Export Message Text from the Information window’s Messages
menu. The Export Message Text window will open. This window is the
same as the Import Message Text window, except for the title.

When the window opens, the Select File field will default to the name of
the application file currently being edited. You can keep the default or
change the name to any valid DOS file name. Once Select File is chosen
the filename area will be highlighted. If the displayed name is acceptable,
press Enter. An export of messages will be performed. You will be
informed if the file already exists in the current directory; the export will
not be performed until you choose Continue and answer Yes to “Overwrite
the Existing File?” PanelBuilder appends the .IMG extension when it
exports the file.

You can modify the export destination directory by selecting Directory
from the Export Message Text menu.

Editing Messages

Choose Messages from the Information window menu, then choose Select
Message
to select a message for editing. Change the text in the Edit
Message window.
