Hi ya.

I have a GUI that has buttons and check boxes. When I started it only had check boxes and then when I added buttons and this bit of code "Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)" to make the buttons run functions, it seems to stop the check boxes from working.

What am I doing wrong?

Cheers

Baz.

Well the first thing your doing wrong, is you didn't post your code! (Also the last thing your doing wrong if you look at this in retrospect)

I've only scrolled through it so far, but I already see an issue. You're trying to use GUIOnEventMode and GUIGetMsg at the same time. They don't go together - it's either one or the other.

Looks like you don't really need oneventmode - you're not using it enough to make a difference. Just get rid of the events, and use the msg loop.

Oh and next time, use code tags.

Sorry for the delay in replying, sort of but not all outputs worked. I have changed the code as recommended to use Case $MSG. I am still learning as I have not tried to do anything like this before. I am use to batch files!

Anyway this is what I have at the moment.

Thanks for the help.

just wanted to know one thing...out of the two options, namely On Event Mode and Message Loop Mode, which one is efficient?

At first glance, the idea I get is Message Loop mode constantly polls the GUI which means, may be, more intensive.

If I have option to go for either, which should I chhose?

I believe we should all pay our tax with a smile. I tried - but they wanted cash!
