GUICtrlCreateInput and pressing enter key

[jftuga]

My program uses Opt ("GUIOnEventMode", 1) and I create an input box with GUICtrlCreateInput().

After the user types something in, how can I make it so that an event is fired when the Enter key is pressed? I usually use GUICtrlSetOnEvent(), but this does not seem to catch the Enter key in the latest AutoIt beta.

Any ideas?

If it can not be done in GUIOnEventMode = 1, how do you accomplish this when it is = 0?

Thanks,

Maybe not exactly what you are looking for but the HotKeySet() function might work for you, just check that the field you want the user to fill isnt empty before you go on with the code.

Thanks. This worked great.

Hello Guys,

This thread is closest to what I am looking for but being a newbie just the function does not really help me understand this script.

Func _IsPressed($hexKey);RETURNS 1 IF KEY IS PRESSED

    Local $aR

    $hexKey = '0x' & $hexKey

    $aR = DllCall($DLLuser32, "int", "GetAsyncKeyState", "int", $hexKey)

    If Not @error And BitAND($aR[0],0x8000) = 0x8000 Then Return 1

    Return 0

EndFunc  ;==>DETERMINE IF A PARTICULAR KEY IS PRESSED

How do I implement this func so that after the input has been entered the "OK" button is in focus and by clicking "ENTER" it automatically submits data?

GUICtrlSetState($OKbutton,$GUI_DEFBUTTON) ; Adds data when Enter pressed.
