Dialogs problems

[vinny]

I'm trying to use a datetime dialog. I downloaded the Dialogs2.4.zip. The example doesn't run. When I try I get:
Error parsing program.
Error description: Unknown type: datedialog
Are you missing a library referance?
Occured on line: 36
Dim Dd As DateDialog

The readme.txt file said to put the jar and xml files in the "Additional Libraries folder". I assume this means the Libraries folder in the folder where b4a is installed. Is there a secret to using these dialogs?

You should go to the libraries tab at the right pane and check the Dialogs library. If you do not see it then right click and press Refresh.

No, libraries can be installed in two folders. I recommend you keep the B4A Libraries folder for "official" libraries and install third-party ones in your Additional Libraries folder. See Tools -> Configure paths in the IDE.
