text-list form now ?question?

[leke]

Hey,
I have just started learning Rebol and was messing with this...

   do [print ["Today’s Date is" now/date "and the time is" now/time ]]

Which works fine.

But then I tried to get 'now/date' and 'now/time' (same as above) in a text-list box on the same line and couldn't get it working right.
Here's what I managed...

rebol []

view center-face layout [
   backcolor silver
      text-list 250x250 form now/date
]

Maybe I shouldn't be jumping into graphics just yet but curiosity got the better of me.
Thanks.

Try this...

Code:

REBOL []
view center-face layout [
   backcolor silver
   text-list 300x250 reform [
       "Today's Date is" now/date
       "and the time is" now/time
   ]
]

REFORM does a REDUCE of the block's contents then a FORM on the block.

Thanks Carl.
