I'd like to present an error message to the user, and could not find a simple API method to do this. I have therefore tried to write my own dialog, which works on Mac OS X with 8.100, but crashes when I dismiss the dialog on Windows 2000 with 8.200 - am I doing something obviously wrong, or should I be reporting this as a bug?
Here's my dialog class

    
    
    
    
    class MyAlert : public GeModalDialog {
    
    
    
    
    LONG message;
    
    
    
    
    LONG suggestion;
    
    
    
    
    MyAlert(LONG m, LONG s);
    
    
    
    
    virtual Bool CreateLayout();
    
    
    
    
    public:
    
    
    
    
    static void ShowAlert(LONG m, LONG s);
    
    
    
    
    };
    
    
    
    
    MyAlert::MyAlert(LONG m, LONG s) :
    
    
    
    
    message(m),
    
    
    
    
    suggestion(s)
    
    
    
    
    {
    
    
    
    
    }
    
    
    
    
    Bool MyAlert::CreateLayout()
    
    
    
    
    {
    
    
    
    
    SetTitle(GeLoadString(IDS_ALERT));
    
    
    
    
    Bool ok = NULL != AddStaticText(GADGET_ALERTMESSAGE, 0, 0, 0, GeLoadString(message), BORDER_NONE);
    
    
    
    
    if(ok)
    
    
    
    
    {
    
    
    
    
    ok = NULL != AddStaticText(GADGET_ALERTSUGGESTION, 0, 0, 0, GeLoadString(suggestion), BORDER_NONE);
    
    
    
    
    }
    
    
    
    
    if (ok)
    
    
    
    
    {
    
    
    
    
    ok = ok && AddDlgGroup(DLG_OK);
    
    
    
    
    }
    
    
    
    
    return ok;
    
    
    
    
    }
    
    
    
    
    void MyAlert::ShowAlert(LONG m, LONG s)
    
    
    
    
    {
    
    
    
    
    MyAlert alert(m, s);
    
    
    
    
    if (!alert.Open())
    
    
    
    
    {
    
    
    
    
    GePrint(GeLoadString(m));
    
    
    
    
    GePrint(GeLoadString(s));
    
    
    
    
    }
    
    
    
    
    }

There's MessageDialog() and QuestionDialog() with various options.

Thanks.
MessageDialog is not in any of the index lists in the SDK documents, where should I report this documentation bug?

In the latest documentation (for 8.2) I've added all global functions to the Alphabetical Index, so now MessageDialog() is there. (I also recommend, since you're using Windows, that you download the .chm file instead. The built in index of the .chm file is really great.)
