editbox won't display

[Rainstorm]

hi,

am having a prob getting this editbox to display - originally it was displaying proper, then i made some
corrections in the editbox template code.. & ironically it stopped working. I know its something connected with the editbox since if I set the no of dialog items to 1 (which excludes the editbox) then the dialog displays proper with the OK button which is the other control. I could post the whole code if neccessary.-The whole code assembles proper just that nothing displays when i run it. - Its a modeless dialog box with in memory templates

i did a modification of the code in the first post(in the title array section) & the editbox seems to display now.. I don't the reason for sure...but is it that no title array text should be specified ? - can anybody familiar with this stuff , clear this ?

thankyou.
