Hi,
Is it possible to get a return value from a dialog window ?
Trying to get a return result for (open/save/OK) or (cancel/close).

Code:
myForm = createForm()
myForm.setSize(300,300)

local memo = createMemo(myForm)
memo.setSize(myForm.Width,myForm.Height - 100)

local button = createButton(myForm)
button.setSize(myForm.Width,100)
button.Top = 200
button.Caption = 'Open'

button.OnClick=function(sender)
  local OpenDialog = createOpenDialog(myForm)
  OpenDialog.execute()
  -------------------------------------------------------
  --print(OpenDialog.GetDialogResult) -- or maybe
  --if (whatever is clicked on) then
    --return ???
  -------------------------------------------------------
  --else
    -- do stuff
    memo.Lines.Insert(1,'Line 1')
    memo.Lines.add('Last line')
  --end
end

openfile()

OpenDialog.execute() returns true when a file has been selected and not canceled
