SysUtils? SysUtils is part of the RTL, there is no cross-platform GUI routine in the entire RTL. The RTL and FCL don't contain GUI code because that would make the development of non-gui software a mess. The simplest option is using Windows.MessageBox (which obviously only works in Windows) MSDN docs: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms645505(VS.85).aspx Or use your IDE to find the declaration of Windows.MessageBox -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
