ADBOX SAMPLER Macro

This macro displays a dialog box (dbox_sampler) that illustrates all of the user interface items that can be shown in a dialog box. Each item is displayed, along with the GISDK code used to create it. By clicking on each tab in this dialog box and printing it, you can produce a quick reference chart to use when creating dialog boxes.
