EndSwitch
WEnd

there is attached image for block

You can't have a function inside another statement.

Remove three lines from your code, add in the include that you have already been told about in previous threads, and it will be valid code.

[JohnOne]

If Melba23 did block you it's probably for good reason, perhaps the stupid code you keep posting or something.

You have been knocking around these forums for almost a year, and you put a function in a message loop?

Are you just trying to have some fun?

So you decide to post an AutoIt related question in the section clearly marked "General non-AutoIt chat". Well, I am totally in agreement with your other statement:

I am not a genius

Why on earth would I "block" you if you post in the "General Help" section? Admittedly you have caused me more work than most forum members - I have had to lock some multiple threads started by you on the same subject and a couple of times I have closed threads where I considered that you were not asking serious questions or not taking any note of the answers given to you - but you have done nothing which would warrant any form of sanction.

So, despite your pleas, I have moved this thread to where it should be - "General Help". I would also counsel against making any more stupid accusations about Moderator behaviour - we try to act fairly and certainly have no problem with people posting "beginner" questions in the correct place - I often answer them myself as I understand perfectly that we were all beginners at some point. But do you not see that it is your own erratic behaviour that brings you to the attention of the Moderating team? Behave normally and, like the majority of people here, you will not have anything to do with us when we are wearing our Mod hats.

I like to know what a function is.

Start with reading http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/intro/lang_functions.htm

can any one complete this script

They could, but won't. As they know that if they do, you will only keep spamming more "complete my script" posts, instead of learning how to do it yourself.

Plus, nobody likes to help apparently spoiled brats. (Shape up or ship out comes to my mind.)

For anyone interested they're using my LockFile UDF, though failed to mention this in their support question.

[JLogan3o13]

I still think he does this on purpose, with no real desire for a coding solution, mewling for attention.

[MvGulik]

Probably.

Don't mind giving OP some more attention.

Neg: Pretending to be a general know, and liked, forum member.

Neg: Pretending to be a kid by not capitalizing the first letter on new sentences.

Neg: Derailing own topic from the start by starting with a complain/rant not relative to intended subject.

Neg: Posting code with obvious stupid indentation. (probably deliberate, as you need to switch from advanced editor mode to basic editor mode to maintain indentation. ... Last time I checked.)

Neg: No note about using a, and which, (bad) translator. (Double or even triple neg if no translator was used.)

Neg: Not capitalizing a user name.

Neg: Not using correct user name.

Neg: Not capitalizing a moderator name.

Neg: Not capitalizing Melba23's name.

Ignoring potential lack of credit case. As Guinness forgot to add a (easy to follow) reverence link.

(Nope. Signature also to hard for me, if its in there. (Disabled on this side).)

Its obvious English is not the OPs first language. He may be having trouble reading the helpfile for he CAN'T read it. Second, if he doesn't understand English much at all, the training videos, helpfile, and other resources that are written in English are not much help. Third, considering the first two points here - correcting the blokes grammer, and how he spells things is pointless.

My last derailing of this topic, honest:

Agree with you completely; we have many members for whom English is not the first language. But this particular member's history shows that he will make inane requests, and then refuse the advice and assistance given. It is not so much this topic rather than my past dealings with him that lead me to believe this behavior is deliberate.

[AdmiralAlkex]

you should develop your self to become like me,, now i am expert in autoit... you must try every day

'nuff said.

[Bert]

Well then with the evidence presented I have no choice but to hence forth refer to the OP with this:

[forever0donotknowme]

what is this

this is forum for help ,, not chat

capital letter

weak translating

uncorrect username

negatives

that is not good for you as scripters,,, you should take care for help of people.

[Mat]

this is forum for help ,, not chat

Ah good. Glad Melba got that sorted.

I (and another member also) pointed out you cannot have a function in the middle of your While loop. You then asked what a function was and got two responses, I gave a very strong hint that it was a Func tion, and another user also linked you to the helpfile page for functions. Given that information, you should be able to identify the function in your code, whilst keeping the actual code of the function intact. I even gave you the clue that only three lines needed to be removed. Given that two of them will have "Func" in them, and the other one is calling your function, there really is nothing to it.

And I'm not even going to summarise the help you got trying to include LockFile. Short of giving you the code, there isn't much more we can do. And we aren't going to give you the code, because that's not how we roll.

I haven't seen the result of your attempts yet. It's a bit like learning to ride a bike. We could ride the bike while you sit on our shoulders. But we'd break our backs while you get to your destination but don't learn anything.
