Delphi Dialogs / Forms ::
MessageDlg Delphi function - I'm sure you have used it many times.
Before you say "I know all about MessageDlg", answer the following question: MessageDlg is called and displays Yes and No buttons. User closes the dialog by clicking on the X button in the title bar. What is the result of the function?
Here's another question: how many users (in percentage) close a dialog form by simply clicking on the [x] button in the title? I think too many. Either they do not understand what the dialog is asking or they are afraid to click any of the buttons.
