When select combobox change input field

[FMS]

Hello,

I've writing this code and I'm a little stuck in what i want to do.
When I select the combobox I want to get the ini information inside the multiline input field.

I know that what I'm doing now is wrong but maybe this helps to clearify things in what I want to do.

Does somebody knows how to do this , or can help me?

Here's a little script for demostrating Teamworking ComboBox and Ini-functions: Textbausteine.au3

This 2 func's doing the trick:

Func _writeTB($sId_TB) ;Routine zum Screiben in INI
    ;hier werdeb die Zeichen @CR (Wagebrücklauf) @LF Zeilenumbruche und @CRLF getauscht
    $write1 = GUICtrlRead($hedtBox)
    $write1 = StringReplace($write1, @CRLF, "_%CRLF%_")
    $write1 = StringReplace($write1, @CR, "_%CR%_")
    $write1 = StringReplace($write1, @LF, "_%LF%_")
    If $write1 <> "" Then IniWrite($sAppIni, "Bausteine", $sId_TB, $write1) ;wenn nicht leer in INI schreien
EndFunc   ;==>_writeTB

Func show_Selection() ;Selekzion anzeigen
    If GUICtrlRead($hcboTB) = $sElect Then ;es ist kein Textbaustein asgewählt
        GUICtrlSetState($hbtnClear, $GUI_DISABLE) ;Leeren-Button disablen
        GUICtrlSetData($hedtBox, "") ;also EDIT leeren
    Else
        GUICtrlSetState($hbtnClear, $GUI_ENABLE) ;Leeren-Button enablen
        $sId_TB = GUICtrlRead($hcboTB) ;Kurzbezeichnng holen
        ;ConsoleWrite("ausgewählt: " & $sId_TB & @CRLF)    ;Kontrolausgabe in Console
        $write1 = IniRead($sAppIni, "Bausteine", $sId_TB, "") ;Baustein aus INI lesen
        ;hier werdeb die Zeichen für @CR (Wagebrücklauf) @LF Zeilenumbruche und @CRLF zurück getauscht
        $write1 = StringReplace($write1, "_%CRLF%_", @CRLF) ;
        $write1 = StringReplace($write1, "_%CR%_", @CR)
        $write1 = StringReplace($write1, "_%LF%_", @LF)

        GUICtrlSetData($hedtBox, $write1) ;Baustein in Edit-Box anzeigen
    EndIf
EndFunc   ;==>show_Selection

by StringReplace 'ing the  bad chr's for Inifiles when writting and replacing back when reading.

Thanks @AutoBert this looks indeed like what i needed
unfortunaly I'm a little bit new on autoit and mine deutsch is not that great.
Do you have a more simplefied version?
I do not know how to use theese functions inside mine script

[AutoBert]

For understanding the code must be enough for a progidy, german is not needed.

But for better understanding what i did in this 2 funcs, because IniRead terminates reading by first CR or  LF:

• i just replaced @CRLF, @CR and @LF before writing (IniWrite)
• After reading (IniRead) i replaced back to origin text 

and here a old example (just extended )of mine with combobox, IniRead and yet 1 multiline Editcontrol: miniDL2.au3
