CAppDialog: invalid program type

Hi.
I am creating a panel for trading and I use the:
Inserted Code
CAppDialog
library.
When I attach the script to the chart I get the following message:
CAppDialog: invalid program type
I also test some other similar panel scripts which I am sure those scripts work correctly, but I get the same message for them!
Anyone know what is this message for?
Thanks.

Please note that, when I use the code as indicator, there is no problem and the panel is created and shown in the chart. But as you know, I can't use any trade order in an indicator!

I think that the message is for the program type :-D
Because I have found the following code in the source library:

Inserted Code
switch(m_program_type)
{
    case PROGRAM_EXPERT:
        if(!CreateExpert(x1,y1,x2,y2))
             return(false);
        break;
    case PROGRAM_INDICATOR:
        if(!CreateIndicator(x1,y1,x2,y2))
             return(false);
        break;
    default:
        Print("CAppDialog: invalid program type");
        return(false);
}

You might have better luck:
1. Asking on the MQL forum and,
2. Posting you complete code so those who know the language can properly dbug.

Giving CApp just a quick look-see, it's pretty robust, but pretty complex, not sure how many here have dug into that. You could also try asking on stack or one of it's subs, I've seen MT4/5 questions answered there as well.
