StringStripWS [Flag] 4 = strip double (or more) spaces between words. I think this would be better if it stripped all white spaces between words or add a flag for that purpose.

Documentation Something has always seemed to be not quite right about the MsgBox page and I finally realized what it is. The logical sequence of the page is wrong. The table of Types should be ahead of the table of Return Values. When someone is writing a message box they need to get the Type before they start writing code for the Return Value.

For example;

$mb = (5 <<<< This is where you need the type

If $mb = <<< This is where you need the return code.

This could also be solved by adding a bookmark to the Type table and inserting the bookmark link right below the Parameters table.

Also the section that includes the Type table would be better if it was named Types instead of Remarks.

MsgBox docs: I agree somewhat. The order is not the best; however, the order is consistent with other pages.

StringStripWS: Again, I somewhat agree. Flag 4 is useful as is. But your suggestion should be a new flag:

8 = strip all spaces between words

Currently, I use variations on StringReplace($string, " ", "") to achieve this.

Then how about the bookmark idea? And I still say that Remarks should be changed to Type. There are really no remarks as such on that page.

Yep, a new flag would be best. I use a similar workaround. but it's clumsy compared to a proper flag.

Still on Docs, it's not mentioned in the help file, but I discovered there are minimum sizes that can be used for InputBox. I didn't play around to see what they actually are, but if you are using a very simple "Prompt" then setting Width and Height to '1' will give the minimum size. You might (or might not) want to include that information.

Thanks! I forgot to put that info.

Ok a new flag for remove all white space in string. I can write that this week and submit to Jon, right after InputBox timeout and optiobns (done, but not sent) and Redim (written, not tested).
