WSELECT()
Activates one of the open windows
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
WSELECT([<nActivateWindow>]) --> nSelectedWindow
Argument
<nActivateWindow> Designates the handle of the window that is
selected. Without this parameter, the function returns the handle of
the currently selected window.
Returns
WSELECT() returns the handle of the current window.
Description
WSELECT() allows you to take an already open but inactive window and
reactivate it. You can specify numbers from 1 to 255. Window 0
corresponds to the physical screen. By omitting the parameter you can
determine the handle of the window currently selected.
Notes
. Many window functions, like WBOX(), WCENTER(), and WFORMAT(),
always relate to the active window.
. With an invalid (i.e. negative) window number, WSELECT()
returns an error code of -1, and the currently selected window
remains active (no change).
Example
Select nWindow, as long as it was previously opened by WOPEN():
WSELECT(nWindow)
