yeah I tried that, along with http://www.mircscripts.org/showdoc.php?type=tutorial&id=27

however, Im not even sure if dialogs is what I need to be looking at, hence why I asked

even using /help dialog and the link I posted, I couldnt see how to do what I wanted

apologies, but Im very inexpierenced with this level of scripting

btw mods, if posting that link breaks any rules, please remove it from this post
