I found interesting behavior of PromptOK when the string contains -- or ++.
when -- is in the text then "Error: Not in table:" message appears on the message box.
when ++ is in the text then there is empty editbox on the message box.
Is this "normal"? or bug in the qt below TheIde?
(I have 1252 on win).

Hi gabor,
It's not a bug, it's a feature PromptOK (and many other controls in U++) allows to use formated text in QTF format. In this format a lot of characters including + and - have some special meaning. If you want to type just ++ or -- you have to escape them by apostrophe:
PromptOK("Ultimate'+'+");
or escape whole group of characters using byte 1:
PromptOK("\1whatever--\1");
For more information about QTF see it's manual.
By the way: There is no qt below theide or u++
