Hello michel. Did you assign any value to the Caption field in the window's properties?

If the Caption is a variable option is selected, the value in the Caption field will be the variable name:

Code: Select all

Window_0 = OpenWindow(#PB_Any, x, y, width, height, something, #PB_Window_SystemMenu)
If the Caption is a variable option is not selected, the value in the Caption field will be the actual caption string:

Code: Select all

Window_0 = OpenWindow(#PB_Any, x, y, width, height, "something", #PB_Window_SystemMenu)
If both fields are left blank, the caption would be a null string:

Code: Select all

Window_0 = OpenWindow(#PB_Any, x, y, width, height, "", #PB_Window_SystemMenu)
Hope that's what you're referring to. :wink:

Hello,

In my mind the option "caption is a variable" generates a variable which can be modified during the runtime. So for example switch to another language. I my case the program turn to error because the variable is not declared as a string.

It's up to you to define the variable where you want :)
