yeah I am looking for messga frame itself, we cant get it ..

same thing is working in chui 8.4 ,gui 8.4 and gui 9.4  but it doesnt work in chui 9.4

(_switch_keyboard) SWIT:7  message "Keyboard switched to %%$keyboard; press Gold-Y to switch back"

(_switch_keyboard) SWIT:8  return (0)

What Operating System do you use, some 64bit?

yes AIX 64 bit ,

but does that make a difference?

perhaps, but you may better contact CPWR on that issue.

If it worked in previous versions, but does not work now, it cries to raise a call

Hi Uli,

 Thanks a lot but got the solution the issue was that for displaying frames,uniface uses usys*.frm forms  like usysfram.frm n all ..

SInce the forms were redirected in our application specific forms it could not find it ....i was surprised that system forms were used for showing message frame ...

I think it would have been informative if it gave an error message ..

Thanks a lot for your asssitance

Hello,

AFAIK, there are 2 different locations for messages: message area and message frame. Try using putmess (appends text to a message frame) instead of message (which displays text in a message area).

Using macro ^message shows the message frame (not a message area).

EDIT: not sure how about chui (since we use only GUI)
