- It seems that this is just about the first thing that anyone sees of OWL!
- It is an OWL error code which means that a window's Create() call didn't
- quite make it. With dialog boxes, you have most probably misspelled the
- name of your dialog in the TDialog constructor's 'AName' parameter.
- Happens to everyone, and takes some time to figure out.
-
- Check out the "OWL User's Guide", Chapter 18, under "EM_XXXX constants".
-
- Hope this helps,
