The User Interface Toolbox

 The User Interface toolbox is a group of BASIC procedures and
 assembly-language routines that is included with Microsoft BASIC. Together,
 these tools allow you to add professional-looking windows and menus to your
 programs.

 The User Interface toolbox includes many of the user interface features of
 the QBX programming environment. When you use the QBX user interface, you
 are using many of the features that the toolbox can bring to your own
 programs.

 The BASIC source code to all of the toolbox procedures is provided with
 Microsoft BASIC. You can use these procedures as listed, or alter or expand
 their functionality to meet your requirements. Even though most of the
 procedures are written in BASIC, they are fast enough for most applications.
 There is also an assembly-language object routine, UIASM.OBJ, to ensure that
 you get quick response from your user-interface design. This
 assembly-language module is linked into the libraries and Quick libraries
 created from the User Interface toolbox.
