New version - 17 Jun 23 ======================= Added: Added 24hr unpadded H mask. New UDF in zip below. Changelog: Changelog.txt Here is my version of a UDF to transform date/time formats. It is entirely self-contained and although it defaults to English for the month/day names, you can set any other language very simply, even having different ones for the input and output. You need to provide a date/time string, a mask to tell the UDF what is in the string, and a second mask to format the output - the masks use the standard "yMdhmsT" characters. This is an example script showing some of the features: #include <Constants.au3> ; Only required for MsgBox constants #include "DTC.au3" Global $sIn_Date, $sOut_Date ; Basic format $sIn_Date = "13/08/02 18:30:15" $sOut_Date = _Date_Time_Convert($sIn_Date, "yy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss", "dddd, d MMMM yyyy at h:mm TT") MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "DTC Conversion", $sIn_Date & @CRLF & $sOut_Date) ; Note how day name is corrected $sIn_Date = "2013082 Sun 12:15:45 PM" $sOut_Date = _Date_Time_Convert($sIn_Date, "yyyyMMd ddd hh:mm:ss TT", "dddd, dd MMM yy") MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "DTC Conversion", $sIn_Date & @CRLF & $sOut_Date) ; Note use of $i19_20 parameter to change century $sIn_Date = "13/08/02 18:30:15" $sOut_Date = _Date_Time_Convert($sIn_Date, "yy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss", "dddd, d MMMM yyyy at h:mm TT", 10) MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "DTC Conversion", $sIn_Date & @CRLF & $sOut_Date) $sIn_Date = "18:30:15 13/08/02" $sOut_Date = _Date_Time_Convert($sIn_Date, "HH:mm:ss yy/MM/dd", "h:mm TT on ddd d MMM yyyy") MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "DTC Conversion", $sIn_Date & @CRLF & $sOut_Date) ; Just to show it works both ways $sIn_Date = "Friday, 2 August 2013 at 6:30 PM" $sOut_Date = _Date_Time_Convert($sIn_Date, "dddd, d MMMM yyyy at h:mm TT", "dd/MM/yy HH:mm") MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "DTC Conversion", $sIn_Date & @CRLF & $sOut_Date) $sIn_Date = $sOut_Date $sOut_Date = _Date_Time_Convert($sIn_Date, "dd/MM/yy HH:mm", "dddd, d MMMM yyyy at h:mm TT") MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "DTC Conversion", $sIn_Date & @CRLF & $sOut_Date) ; Note false returns for non-specified elements $sIn_Date = "6:15 P" $sOut_Date = _Date_Time_Convert($sIn_Date, "h:m T", "yy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss") MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "DTC Conversion", $sIn_Date & @CRLF & $sOut_Date) ; Note use of "x" in place of actual spacing/punctuation $sIn_Date = "Sun 12:15:45 PM" $sOut_Date = _Date_Time_Convert($sIn_Date, "dddxhhxmmxssxTT", "dddd HH:mm") MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "DTC Conversion", $sIn_Date & @CRLF & $sOut_Date) ; Output month/day strings changed to French _Date_Time_Convert_Set("smo", "jan,fév,mar,avr,mai,juin,juil,août,sept,oct,nov,déc") _Date_Time_Convert_Set("ldo", "dimanche,lundi,mardi,mercredi,jeudi,vendredi,samedi") _Date_Time_Convert_Set("SDO", 3) ; Each short name is first 3 chars of equivalent long name ; Note as only the short day names are required, they could have been set directly: ; _Date_Time_Convert_Set("sdo", "dim,lun,mar,mer,jeu,ven,sam") $sIn_Date = "20130716 Sun 12:15:45 PM" $sOut_Date = _Date_Time_Convert($sIn_Date, "yyyyMMd ddd hh:mm:ss TT", "ddd, d MMM yy") MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "DTC Conversion", $sIn_Date & @CRLF & $sOut_Date) ; Output month/day strings changed to German _Date_Time_Convert_Set("smo", "Jan.,Feb.,März,Apr.,Mai,Juni,Juli,Aug.,Sept.,Okt.,Nov.,Dez.") _Date_Time_Convert_Set("ldo", "Sonntag,Montag,Dienstag,Mittwoch,Donnerstag,Freitag,Samstag") $sIn_Date = "20130716 Sun 12:15:45 PM" $sOut_Date = _Date_Time_Convert($sIn_Date, "yyyyMMd ddd hh:mm:ss TT", "dddd, d MMM yy") MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "DTC Conversion", $sIn_Date & @CRLF & $sOut_Date) ; All strings reconverted to default English _Date_Time_Convert_Set() ; As shown here $sIn_Date = "20130716 Sun 12:15:45 PM" $sOut_Date = _Date_Time_Convert($sIn_Date, "yyyyMMd ddd hh:mm:ss TT", "ddd, d MMM yy") MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "DTC Conversion", $sIn_Date & @CRLF & $sOut_Date) And here is the UDF and example in zip format: DTC.zip As always, happy for any comments.

This UDF has been rewritten - the new version can be found here. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [New version] - 28 Aug 16 Added: The UDF is now RTL sensitive. Thanks to shai for the request. New UDF and examples below. Details of previous versions: The GUIExtender UDF allows you to have multiple sections within your GUIs which can be either static or extendable. The extendable sections can be extended and retracted either by UDF created buttons or programmatically by other controls or HotKeys. The controls on the sections are fully functional and there is no overlap problem when retracted (see the details section if you want to know how). The UDF can be used in both MessageLoop and OnEvent modes and with both native and UDF created controls, as well as embedded objects and child GUIs. Details of how the UDF works for those who are interested: The UDF and plenty of commented examples are in the attached zip: As always, happy to receive brickbats or bouquets. M23

No, it is because if not $test = 1 evaluates $test for true or false then tests that result against 1, whereas, if not ($test = 1) evaluates the entire expression edit: without knowing the value of $test you do not know what it will evaluate to edit2: so far we've said the same thing three different ways...

I wrote script called LiveStreaming.au3. You can use it for streaming from "http://music.nextweb.ru:9500/adigeiskaya". It uses AutoItObject even though now it can be written to use built-in functions. At least two more users wrote streaming scripts later based on that one so search a bit. If you like WMP you can use its objects to stream too, examples of that exist on the forum.

This isn't laborious work. There is the Ocvita Barcode ActiveX Control based on zint engine. It has more than 50 1D (EAN, ISBN, Code 128 and so on) and 2D (QR Code, Datamatrix, Aztec) symbologies. You can download from here http://ocvita.ru/content/view/90/35/ Register OcvitaBarcode.ocx by command regsvr32 OcvitaBarcode.ocx BCode.au3 is my simple example how to use Ocvita Barcode ActiveX by AutoIt3 $GUI = GUICreate("OCVITA_BARCODE by AutoIt3, Valery Ivanov, 19 September, 2013", 400, 400, -1, -1) $oBCode = ObjCreate("Ocvita.Barcode") $oBCodeGUI = GUICtrlCreateObj($oBCode, 10, 110, 380, 280) $oBCode.barcode = "Valery" $oBCode.hrtext = "Valery" GUISetState() While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Select Case $nMsg = -3 Exit EndSelect WEnd Enjoy!

Good news for you ckelsoe! In ISN v. 0.95 BETA the toolbar will be fully customizable!

in HelpFile GUIGetMsg() from latest BETA Try to use this function GUIGetMsg().
