How to concatenate long string in source code
Hi,
I have some MessageBox with several lines of message string. If I put them on the same line in the source file they are OK but it is a pain to scroll all the way to the right just to change or see the whole message.
Is there a concatenating symbol I can use so that I may have something like:
MessageBox(NULL, "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa\n
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb\n
cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc",
"Error Message", MB_ICONSTOP);
I have look in the help but could not find it. Anyone has any idea? thanks.
Will

You don't see this to often in books but all you have to do is seperate them with quotation marks, like this.
MessageBox(NULL, "AAAAAAAAAAA"
"BBBBBBBBBBB"
"CCCCCCCCCCC"
"DDDDDDDDDDD", NULL, MB_OK);
The compiler automatically concatenates them.
