subject: Opening a 2nd VXREXX window

BH> One thing though how do you have a
 BH> button in the main window call another window?

I haven't actually tried this (since my project is a notebook and all the
secondary windows are loaded automatically by the notebook object) but the
books says to have the button's click event do one of the following...

window = VRLoadSecondary( "SW_1" )  /* for a modeless 2nd'ry window */

call VRLoadSecondary "SW_1", "Wait" /* for a modal
2nd'ry window */

Check out chapter 15 in the VXREXX Programmer's Guide and Reference or look
up VRLoadSecondary in the on-line docs for a complete description.
