   MsgGet( cTitle, cText, @uVar, cBmpFile )-> <lOk>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 PARAMETER:

  <cTitle>      Is the title of the DialogBox

  <cText>       Is the caption of the Input GET 

  <uVar>        Any variable value passed by REFERENCE!

  <cBmpFile>    Optional BMP-File to be displayed beside the GET.



 RETURNS:

  <lOk> is TRUE if user pushed the OK button of the dialog.



 DESCRIPTION:

  This is a very useful function to quickly display a dialog with a GET
  that accepts some user input. The dialog box contains 2 buttons ( OK and
  CANCEL ), and you can display a 20/20pixel bitmap on it. The user input
  from the GET control is stored in <uVar> provided by reference, if the
  dialog was closed with the OK button.


 EXAMPLE:


    +--------------------------------------------------------------+
    |  /* Retreive a FileName and open the File */                 |
    |  LOCAL cVar := space(12)                                     |
    |                                                              |
    |  LOCAL cVar := space(12)                                     |
    |  IF( MsgGet("File", "Filename", @cVar,"MyIcon.Bmp")          |
    |     FOPEN( cVar )                                            |
    |     ...                                                      |
    |  ENDIF                                                       |
