you inspired me: without arrayadds or redim - still needs the sorting on the first array #include <Array.au3> Global $aFirstArray[10][2] = [["Type1", "Subtype1"],["Type1", "Subtype2"], _ ["Type1", "Subtype3"],["Type2", "Subtype4"], _ ["Type2", "Subtype5"],["Type3", "Subtype5"], _ ["Type4", "Subtype6"],["Type4", "Subtype7"], _ ["Type5", "Subtype8"],["Type5", "Subtype9"]] _ArrayDisplay($aFirstArray, "This") ; This is the desired output array ; Like a Parent(Type) header, then Children (Subtypes) bel;ow it Global $sFinal = "" $lasttype = "" for $i = 0 to ubound($aFirstArray) - 1 $type = $aFirstArray[$i][0] If $type = $lasttype then $sFinal &= $aFirstArray[$i][1] & "," Else $sFinal &= $aFirstArray[$i][0] & "," $sFinal &= $aFirstArray[$i][1] & "," EndIf $lasttype = $type next $aFinal = stringsplit(stringtrimright($sFinal , 1), "," , 2) _ArrayDisplay($aFinal)

Same idea than boththose, without _Array functions (but the array must be sorted for it works). #Include <Array.au3> Local $aFirstArray[10][2] = [["Type1", "Subtype1"],["Type1", "Subtype2"], _ ["Type1", "Subtype3"],["Type2", "Subtype4"], _ ["Type2", "Subtype5"],["Type3", "Subtype5"], _ ["Type4", "Subtype6"],["Type4", "Subtype7"], _ ["Type5", "Subtype8"],["Type5", "Subtype9"]] Local $aResult[ UBound($aFirstArray) * 2], $sLast, $n = 0 For $i = 0 To UBound($aFirstArray) - 1 If $aFirstArray[$i][0] <> $sLast Or $n = 0 Then $sLast = $aFirstArray[$i][0] $aResult[$n] = $sLast $n += 1 $aResult[$n] = $aFirstArray[$i][1] Else $aResult[$n] = $aFirstArray[$i][1] EndIf $n += 1 Next Redim $aResult[$n] _ArrayDisplay($aResult) An other idea could be to use a SQLite memory database, (interesting for a big array, I think).

quite easy also using _ArrayUniqe and _ArrayFindAll (bonus: there is no need to sort by Type) #include <Array.au3> ; In the following array, you see that Type1 one has 3 SubTypes, ; Subtype1, Subtype2, and Subtype3. ; ; Type 2 has 2 subtypes, type3, only 1 etc... ; ; Of course this is not fixed size array and the anount of subtypes vary ; The array is sorted by type though Global $aFirstArray[10][2] = [["Type1", "Subtype1"],["Type1", "Subtype2"], _ ["Type1", "Subtype3"],["Type2", "Subtype4"], _ ["Type2", "Subtype5"],["Type3", "Subtype5"], _ ["Type4", "Subtype6"],["Type4", "Subtype7"], _ ["Type5", "Subtype8"],["Type5", "Subtype9"]] _ArrayDisplay($aFirstArray, "This") Local $aTypes = _ArrayUnique($aFirstArray) ; list of single types that are in the $aFirstArray Local $aWantedArray[UBound($aFirstArray) + $aTypes[0]] ; make room for output. All subtypes + single Types Local $aSubTypesNdx, $iPointer = 0 ; internal use ; For $i = 1 To $aTypes[0] $aSubTypesNdx = _ArrayFindAll($aFirstArray, $aTypes[$i]) ; find all subtypes of the same type $aWantedArray[$iPointer] = $aTypes[$i] ; header for next subtypes $iPointer += 1 ; point to next free element For $iSubtype = 0 To UBound($aSubTypesNdx) - 1 ; peek all subtypes $aWantedArray[$iPointer] = $aFirstArray[$aSubTypesNdx[$iSubtype]][1] ; populate output $iPointer += 1 ; point to next free element Next ; _ArrayDisplay($aWantedArray) ; shows WantedArray while is populated Next _ArrayDisplay($aWantedArray, "To This")

#include <Array.au3> ; In the following array, you see that Type1 one has 3 SubTypes, ; Subtype1, Subtype2, and Subtype3. ; ; Type 2 has 2 subtypes, type3, only 1 etc... ; ; Of course this is not fixed size array and the anount of subtypes vary ; The array is sorted by type though Global $aFirstArray[10][2] = [["Type1", "Subtype1"],["Type1", "Subtype2"], _ ["Type1", "Subtype3"],["Type2", "Subtype4"], _ ["Type2", "Subtype5"],["Type3", "Subtype5"], _ ["Type4", "Subtype6"],["Type4", "Subtype7"], _ ["Type5", "Subtype8"],["Type5", "Subtype9"]] _ArrayDisplay($aFirstArray, "This") ; This is the desired output array ; Like a Parent(Type) header, then Children (Subtypes) bel;ow it Global $aSecondArray[0] $lasttype = "" for $i = 0 to ubound($aFirstArray) - 1 $type = $aFirstArray[$i][0] If $type = $lasttype then _ArrayAdd($aSecondArray , $aFirstArray[$i][1]) Else _ArrayAdd($aSecondArray , $aFirstArray[$i][0]) _ArrayAdd($aSecondArray , $aFirstArray[$i][1]) EndIf $lasttype = $type next _ArrayDisplay($aSecondArray, "To This") **This is totally assuming the first array is sorted by type as in the example

You can add Labels and PopUp menu for each Label.

Free is the best kind of cheap

Obviously not....it was just an example. You don't need a loop I was just showing that I can get any number line. $text = "this is some text on line 1" & @CRLF & "text on line 2" & @CRLF & "another line of text (line 3)" & @CRLF & "line 4" & @CRLF & "this is the final line (5)" $linenum = 4 $pattern = "^(?:[^\n]*\n){" & $linenum - 1 & "}([^\n]*)" $test = StringRegExp($text, $pattern, 1) ConsoleWrite('Text on line ' & $linenum & ' is: "' & StringStripCR($test[0]) & '"' & @CRLF) EDIT: jchd beat me to it by milliseconds

It's possible without making an array of all the lines: $text = "this is some text on line 1" & @CRLF & "text on line 2" & @CRLF & "another line of text (line 3)" & @CRLF & "line 4" & @CRLF & "this is the final line (5)" For $linenum = 1 to 5 $pattern = "^(?:[^\n]*\n){" & $linenum - 1 & "}([^\n]*)" $test = StringRegExp($text, $pattern, 1) ConsoleWrite('Text on line ' & $linenum & ' is: "' & StringStripCR($test[0]) & '"' & @CRLF) Next

Are you sure the text consists of lines? Meaning, does it actually contain @CR and/or @LF characters? If so, then this should work: $text = "hello1" & @CRLF & "hello2" & @CRLF & "hello3" & @CRLF & "hello4" & @CRLF & "hello5" $array_of_lines = StringRegExp($text, "(?m)^.*$", 3) MsgBox(0, 0, "Third line: " & $array_of_lines[2]) (Note that the third line is array element 2, as the array result of that StringRegExp call is 0-based.) Of course, if speed is paramount you should benchmark all possible approaches.

Test it and don't make assumptions.

How do you make a config file.

You can automate visual keyboard W + R > OSK.EXE or Run > OSK.EXE After that, ControlClick maybe ? MouseClick ?

Use the proper #pragma() statement to set it to produce a Console Exe. #pragma compile(Console, true) Jos

You mean something like this: $iNumber = -1067353106670363250 ConsoleWrite($iNumber) ConsoleWrite(" = ") $tInt64 = DllStructCreate("int64") DllStructSetData($tInt64, 1, $iNumber) $tSubStructure = DllStructCreate("ptr;ptr", DllStructGetPtr($tInt64)) $sHexQword = Hex(DllStructGetData($tSubStructure, 2)) & Hex(DllStructGetData($tSubStructure, 1)) ConsoleWrite($sHexQword & @CRLF)
