Output list-style data in a dialog from OnClick

Petter S.

Hi.

Im trying to build a form-like report where the user can click any printed amount (in MemoView's), causing the report to show a list-style output of the details that makes the amount. It is all working fine, but I'm having problem finding a way to present the output in a nice list-style. My list have 3 columns, and various number of rows.

Now I use the showmessage, but the formatting is rather poor in this one.

Any hints anyone?

Is it possible to activate a dialog from a dialog-page from script?
Delphi has ShowMessageFmt. Nothing like this in FR?
Is there any way of formatting the output in a showmessage or messagedlg?
Is it possible to change font in theese to a monotype font, so that I can set up decent columns?

Use DialogPage1.ShowModal;

Create user function to show formwhat you want from Delphi

Thanks. This did the trick for me. Combined with setting the .visible to false initially, so that the dialog does not show at report execution.
I could not find any component supporting columns in the dialog page, so i use a listbox with font set to courier to build output with fixed columns.
