Ok, let´s start on a different way.

How can i read the a GUI Edit Window?

GUICtrlRead

But i want to read Line 2 in the GUI Edit Window.

Which function is necessary?

Your gui or a gui from some other process?

Hi Kylomas,

my GUI.

i create

 Local $idMyedit = GUICtrlCreateEdit("First line" & @CRLF, 176, 32, 121, 97, $ES_AUTOVSCROLL + $WS_VSCROLL)

Afterwards i will read only Line 2 in the Edit Window to read and write this single line in another window.

Horphi,

I'm answering from a phone so the typing\spelling may be atrocious.  

I'll be back later.  Hopefully someone can answer.  I just tried to type a solution and this "smart phone" changed text to what it thought the text should be.  Got to find out how to turn this off.

horphi,

Use GUICtrlRead to get the content of the edit and then use StringSplit to break that into lines. You can then access the second line easily:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <StringConstants.au3>

$sData = "Line 1" & @CRLF & "Line 2" & @CRLF & "Line 3"

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)

$cEdit = GUICtrlCreateEdit($sData, 10, 10, 200, 200)

$cGo = GUICtrlCreateButton("Extract", 10, 300, 80, 30)
GUICtrlSetState($cGo, $GUI_FOCUS)

GUISetState()

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $cGo

            $sText = GUICtrlRead($cEdit)
            $aLines = StringSplit($sText, @CRLF, $STR_ENTIRESPLIT) ; Look in help file to see why you need the constant
            MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Extracted", $aLines[2])
    EndSwitch

WEnd

Please ask if you have any questions.

Hello Melba23,

thx for the example.

That works fine.

I modified it with my needed function.

Now i can extract the single value into a seperate GUI WIndow. :-)

expandcollapse popup

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <StringConstants.au3>

$sData = "Line 1" & @CRLF & "Line 2" & @CRLF & "Line 3"

Global $aArray[5] = ["1", "2", "3", "4", "5"]

; And here we get the elements into a list
$sList = ""
For $i = 0 To UBound($aArray) - 1
    $sList &= "|" & $aArray[$i]
 Next

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 300, 300)

$cEdit = GUICtrlCreateEdit($sData, 10, 10, 100, 100)

$cEdit2 = GUICtrlCreateEdit('', 10, 120, 100, 100)

$cGo = GUICtrlCreateButton("Extract", 10, 250, 80, 30)
GUICtrlSetState($cGo, $GUI_FOCUS)

; Create the combo
$hCombo = GUICtrlCreateCombo("", 150, 10, 100, 20)
; And fill it
GUICtrlSetData($hCombo, $sList)

GUISetState()

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $cGo
            $sCount = GUICtrlRead($hCombo)
            $sText = GUICtrlRead($cEdit)
            $aLines = StringSplit($sText, @CRLF, $STR_ENTIRESPLIT) ; Look in help file to see why you need the constant
;~             MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Extracted", $aLines[$sCount])
            GUICtrlSetData($cEdit2,$aLines[$sCount])
    EndSwitch

WEnd
