Ok,

Can someone point me to a source-tutorial on the correct syntax for using tag.toString?

I'm trying to assign a pointer (in this case), to a textbox using tag.toString and assign the value in the textbox back to the pointer.

for example,

short lblone =100

rtx_EnableRxLabel(7, lblone); // set ch7 to rx label 100 as default

??? writef("%d", lblone (tag.toString...()));

in other words, I want to display the value of lblone in a TextBox, and if I change the value in the TextBox, it will update lblone.

I know it's simple, but the more I try, the faster everything starts spinning!

Sorry, I don't quite follow what you're saying. Perhaps this will help: the tag property is just an Object, so calling toString on it is simply getting that object's string representation. If you want to set a non-Object (non-class) as the tag, wrap it in some class. If you want it to be a string, DFL has StringObject provided. x.tag = new StringObject("foo");

Please clarify if this didn't help.

Thanks for the reply,

I figured out it won't work anyway. The TextBox will only accept a char input, so I think I will just punt and go back to C.
