N Col using textbox value

Hi all,

I am trying to create a user input box that will determine the N Col for my line up box. I tried this script 

User_Input = New Window( "N Col", << modal(),
 hlistbox(
  Text Box( "Enter Column No:  " ),
  Col_Num_teb = Text Edit Box( "", <<SET width=""></SET>

I tried entering 4 but ends up having 2 columns. How can I correctly get the N Col for my line up box?

Hi,

Unless you convert your text/string into a number, the LineUpBox call will not work. Try replacing the Text Edit Box () with a Number Edit Box

User_Input = New Window( "N Col", << modal(),
 hlistbox(
  Text Box( "Enter Column No:  " ),
  Col_Num_neb = Number Edit Box ( 1 ), // You can replace "1" by any other initial value
 ),
 Button Box( "OK", 
  col_num = col_num_neb << get; // You don't need the parentheses here
 ),
);

lb = LineUpBox( N Col(col_num) );
