WIDGET_MESSAGE keywords? [message #4861]

I am having trouble using keywords with the WIDGET_MESSAGE function. The
manuals do not discuss this function much at all. My code looks like this...
result=WIDGET_CONTROL('File not found'),ERROR
I get a syntax error for putting the ERROR keyword on it. It works fine
without it (as a warning box.) Any help would be appreciated.

Myron.

That should be

result = WIDGET_MESSAGE( 'File not found', /ERROR )

The widget_message routine is a function, so all the keywords and parameters
have to go inside the parenthesis.
