GUI won't SEND

[DaLiMan]

Hi there, I am new to v3 GUI writing so I thought "Start Simple" and go from there.

But the first example from the help file ( with a small change ) still doesn't work.

Can anyone help me back on the track?

I want to enter some text in the box and then write this in my app.

But the code below won't work......

; a basic GUI equivalent to $input= InputBox ("My first AutoIt GUI", "Please Enter ?")

GuiCreate ("My first AutoIt GUI") ; start the definition 
    
GuiSetControl ("label", "Please Enter ?", 10,10); add prompt info 
$nInput = GuiSetControl ("input", "", 10,30) ; add the input area 
$nOk    = GUISetControl ("button", "OK", 20,70); add the button that will close the GUI 
    
GuiWaitClose (); to display the dialog box 
    
if $nOK= GuiRead () then; to verify if OK was click 
Global $input = GuiRead ($nInput); get the type value 
Send, ($input); will display the typed value 
endif

Global $input = GuiRead ($nInput); get the type value

msgbox (0,""$input); will display the typed value

endif

just use a function to display as msgbox, Send is sending info to a windows.

In your case you have not open a windows to send the info to.

I hope that help

Needs work ?

---------------------------

AutoIt Error

---------------------------

Line 13  (File "E:\Programs\AutoIt3\Examples\june10\1.au3"):

msgbox (0,""$input); will display the typed value

msgbox (0,^ ERROR

Error: Error in expression.

msgbox (0,"", $input); will display the typed value

Simple change, it just needs a comma to seperate the paramaters. MsgBox(0, "", $input)

Sorry for the wrong info, but I just copied the item from the HELP file and only changed the script line but not the extra text behind it.

But it should say:

if $nOK= GuiRead () then; to verify if OK was click 
Global $input = GuiRead ($nInput); get the type value 
Send, ($input); will send the typed value 
endif

Anyway......yesterday evening I figured out what was wrong.

I mixed v2 and v3 code like this -> Send, ($Input)

Notice the " , " in the code !!!! :iamstupid:

Just had to remove this and works fine.

Thanx all together
