Morning all. I've finished my first application and thought I'd try to get fancy and save myself some of the repetative code for future projects by creating a base class I can inherit from. My working code is below - I've culled alot of the irrelevant stuff out.
I've run into a problem though, in that my dialog doesn't show.
And it doesn't help that the debugger doesn't seem to step into the sub class's functions. Is anyone able to point me in the right direction here?
Thanks
