use it frequently.

BOXMENU combines the usefulness of Clipper's ACHOICE() function and MENU TO
command to give you a convenient way to pop up menus in a box. Some of the
features of BOXMENU are: automatic highlighting of the selected option,
automatic dulling of the menu box when finished, and multiple valid option
strings to allow not only the first letter of the options to be picked, but
also a list of option letters you pass as a parameter.
Syntax: BOXMENU( row, column, options [, choice [, altkeys [, exitkeys;
[, prompts [, prompt_row [, colors ] ] ] ] ] ] )
