So if you haven't noticed Zedna's Resources UDF has been a very popular UDF over the last 7 years and was last updated in 2011, but now is the time to bring the UDF up to date with the current AutoIt language syntax (v3.3.14.2). So with the blessing of Zedna may I present to you ResourcesEx. It's built using the UDF standards I have tried to enforce around here, with improved documentation and an overall UDF structure. I please ask that you try and break the UDF, criticise, educate, whatever, just play around with the functions and example. I do ask that you just don't say "you've missed the point" and leave at that. Provide an alternative or constructive reason as to why I have "missed the point". Thanks. IMPORTANT: You must be using SciTE4AutoIt3, as this comes included with AutoItWrapper Changes between Zedna's UDF and guinness' UDF. _ResourceGet() => _Resource_Get() _ResourceGetAsString() => _Resource_GetAsString() with an additional param of whether to return ANSI. _ResourceGetAsStringW() => _Resource_GetAsString() _ResourceGetAsBytes() => _Resource_GetAsBytes() _ResourceGetAsImage() => _Resource_GetAsImage() _ResourceGetAsBitmap() => _Resource_GetAsBitmap() _ResourceSaveToFile() => _Resource_SaveToFile() _ResourceSetImageToCtrl() => _Resource_SetToCtrlID() _SetBitmapToCtrl() => _Resource_SetBitmapToCtrlID() As to JFX's question of what makes this different... Known problems/limitations: (Taken for Zedna's Resources UDF) _ResourceGet() returns resource size (in bytes) in @extended macro but not for resource type RT_BITMAP [FIXED] _ResourceSetImageToCtrl() works with "static/button" type of controls (picture,label,icon,button,checkbox,radiobutton,groupbox) [NO_ISSUE] _ResourcePlaySound() plays only WAV files (not MP3 files) [FIXED] _ResourceGetAsBytes() doesn't work for RT_BITMAP type because _ResourceGet() returns hBitmap instead of memory pointer in this case there could be used _ResourceGetAsImage() as workaround _ResourceGet() has potential memory leak releasing of resources UnlockResource, FreeResource (opposite of LoadResource, LockResource) is not done because it must be done after using of resources at the end and not inside UDF [FIXED] _GDIPlus_Startup() is called once at start of whole include --> no _GDIPlus_Shutdown() is called [FIXED] Download the ZIP and play around with the Example/UDF. ResourcesEx.zip Jos: 15-9-2022 Updated version replaced $__WINVER with _WinAPI_GetVersion() Jos: 27-4-2023 updated script as they required extra #include: ResourcesEx.zip Changelog: 2015/09/26 Changed: Comments throughout the UDF, removing trailing dot Fixed: Various cosmetic changes 2015/01/12 Fixed: Example directive using double equals sign Fixed: Delete functions not being cast as a bool value.

I encourage you to read here.

mesale0077, Glad I could help. M23

mesale0077, As far as I know all you can do is remove the checkbox entirely as shown >here. M23

Kovacic, A couple of glasses of good red wine later - this might be the solution (with a big shout to BrewManNH for his suggestion above): Case $cStop $sStop = _NowCalc() $iStopMS = @MSEC ConsoleWrite($sStop & "." & $iStopMS & @CRLF) GUICtrlSetState($cStop, $GUI_DISABLE) GUICtrlSetState($cStart, $GUI_ENABLE) $iStartMs = (Number(StringRight($sStart, 2)) * 1000) + $iStartMS $iStopMs = (Number(StringRight($sStop, 2)) * 1000) + $iStopMS $iDiffMs = $iStopMs - $iStartMS $iDays = _DateDiff("D", $sStart, $sStop) $sStart = _DateAdd("D", $iDays, $sStart) $iHours = _DateDiff("h", $sStart, $sStop) $sStart = _DateAdd("h", $iHours, $sStart) $iMins = _DateDiff("n", $sStart, $sStop) $sStart = _DateAdd("n", $iMins, $sStart) $iSecs = Int($iDiffMs / 1000) $iMSecs = $iDiffMs - ($iSecs * 1000) ConsoleWrite($iSecs & "." & $iMSecs & @CRLF) I cannot break it after a good few tests - your turn.

Why are you clicking the button 3 times? Also, the X/Y parameters are rarely needed and usually when someone uses them they're using them incorrectly. Get rid of the X/Y coordinates as they're probably not needed. If that doesn't work, then try >this UDF to see if it can find the controls.

Well lets begin, This script used to help middle and high school students practice their information security skills, The game is really a competition between thousands of students to see who can solve comprised Host images of computer for score. I may have been cryptic about the ICAR file but I was explaining what it is for those who do not know and that's just a small part of the process. If you are interested more in the competition here is a link to their website (uscyberpatriot.org) I am a student at University helping some of these kids gain an interest in information security and getting their "Moral Fiber" straightened out...

Aktonius, My way? See post #8 above and the 2 replies to your other thread - I think you will find that the request to see some code is pretty widely shared. As to locking your threads - why should they remain open seeing you refuse to offer any assistance to the Devs in determining where and what this "bug" might be? Anyway we have wasted enough of our time on you and your supposed but invisible bug - thread locked (in my normal non-aggressive manner of course). M23
