Hi there,

i was wondering if someone knows an easy method to duplicate a dialog with all actions, events aso. Right now i allways create an empty one and copy/paste the controls from another to it, but this doesn't copy actions etc.. In addition if there are a lot controls with conditional hiding etc. I get confused, because this way they loose their names... ???

Maybe something like exporting to another project, renaming and importing back from there... ???

Thanx in advance...

Yes, that's the way to go:
rename the dialog
export it
rename it back
import the renamed dialog

Beware that you now have duplicate controls, e.g. radio group properties. Deleting one may delete it on the other dialog, too. Also the dialogs are using the same string table entries, so you would have to assign new string table entries if you want to have different text on the two dialogs
