CHOOSE

Creates a choose box, which is a box containing a list of

 

options from which the user chooses one. Each option is

 

numbered, 1 through n. The result of the choose

 

command is to store the number of the option chosen in a

 

variable. The syntax is

 

CHOOSE default_option_number; title; option1;

 

option2; ...optionn:

 

where default_option_number is the number of the option

 

that will be highlighted by default whenever the choose

 

box is displayed, title is the text displayed in the title bar

 

of the choose box, and option1...optionn are the options

 

listed in the choose box.
