why don't you do Java or another C language?

Message box:

Code: Select all

MessageBox(handle, 'Message Text', 'Message Title', MB_Type or MB_Icon);

Valid options for MB_Type:

Code: Select all

 
  MB_OK
  MB_OKCANCEL
  MB_ABORTRETRYIGNORE
  MB_YESNOCANCEL
  MB_YESNO
  MB_RETRYCANCEL

Valid options for MB_Icon:

Code: Select all

  MB_ICONERROR
  MB_ICONQUESTION
  MB_ICONWARNING
  MB_ICONASTERISK

You don't need the "or MB_Icon" part but if you want you can use of those icons.

If:

If <Condition> Then
begin
//code here
end;

Example:

Code: Select all

If 1 = 1 Then
  begin
    MessageBox(handle, '1 = 1', '', MB_OK);
  end;

Declaring variables:

Put this outside of any 'begin'.

Code: Select all

var varName: Type;

Example:

Code: Select all

var x: Integer;

begin
    x := 1;
    If x = 1 Then
      begin
         MessageBox(handle, 'x = 1', '', MB_OK);
      end;
end;

Here's an example of putting it all together:

Code: Select all

var
  x: Integer;
  msg: PChar;
begin
  x:= 1;

  If x = 1 Then
    begin
      msg := 'x = 1';
      MessageBox(handle, msg, '', MB_OK);
    end;
end;
