b3lorixx Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 So, im trying to read $npc51c1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("npc51c1", 48, 192, 81, 21) from within a function however, it constantly returns 0 instead of giving the value of the input box and from what ive been reading, if it returns a 0 its because its due to failure. Could anyone tell me what im doing wrong? my function is below. Func CityCoords($CityNumber, $NpcLevel) Local $npc1, $npc GUICtrlSetData($Status, "Writing City " & $CityNumber & " Coords to File!") If $NpcLevel = 5 Then For $i = 1 To 70 Step 1 ;Generate GUI Input Name $npc1 = "$npc5" & $CityNumber & "c" & $i ;Read GUI Input and Return Value $npc = GUICtrlRead($npc1) ;Write GUI Value to File IniWrite("city" & $CityNumber & "coords.ini", "npc" & $NpcLevel & $CityNumber & "coords", $i, $npc) Next Else For $i = 1 To 60 Step 1 ;Generate GUI Input Name $npc1 = "$npc10" & $CityNumber & "c" & $i ;Read GUI Input and Return Value $npc = GUICtrlRead($npc1) ;Write GUI Value to File IniWrite("city" & $CityNumber & "coords.ini", "npc" & $NpcLevel & $CityNumber & "coords", $i, $npc) Next EndIf GUICtrlSetData($Status, "Done!") EndFunc ;==>CityCoords
Moderators Melba23 Posted March 3, 2011 Moderators Posted March 3, 2011 b3lorixx,You need to use Eval to get the value of the variable whose name you are creating in $npc1.This should work:;Generate GUI Input Name $npc1 = "npc5" & $CityNumber & "c" & $i ; Note no $ at the front ;Read GUI Input and Return Value $npc = GUICtrlRead(Eval($npc1)) ; And use Eval to get the value of the variable referenced by that string with the $ in frontLet me know if it works for you - it does for me.
