Can I create custom dialogs and other interactive user-input controls in STATISTICA BASIC?
Simple to use and flexible facilities can be called using STATISTICA BASIC with a single function call to accept the user input. For example, a statement as simple as Read(A) will display a dialog box and prompt the user of your BASIC program to enter a value for variable A; the statement PauseAndEdit will display an interactively customizable dialog where you can display and/or edit (in run time) current values of any variable in the program including values from all arrays (an invaluable aid for debugging your programs, but also a perfect tool to be incorporated in your custom BASIC applications). A library of flexible functions that generate the most commonly used types of dialogs is available. For example, with a single line of code (that can be inserted with a single click of the mouse via the Wizard), you can create dialogs for displaying messages, warnings, Yes/No/Cancel selections, etc., dialogs with buttons, as well as more complex custom-input dialogs (e.g., single-selection
