Selected Value of Combo Box

[Kash]

Hello,

How to read selected value of combo box control using autoIT?

I have below script.

GUICreate("ComboBox",225,100)

$controlID = GUICtrlCreateCombo( "---",0 ,0 ,100,10) ; create first item

GUICtrlSetData(3, " ITEM 1| ITEM2| ITEM3")

Now i would like to get selected value when it is selected by user.

Please help.

Thanks.

Use GUICtrlRead

$sSelected = GUICtrlRead($controlID)

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Global $hGUI, $ComboBox

$hGUI = GUICreate('ComboBox', 200, 200)
$ComboBox = GUICtrlCreateCombo('---', 0, 0, 200, 200)
GUICtrlSetData($ComboBox, 'ITEM1|ITEM2|ITEM3')

GUISetState()
While True
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            GUIDelete()
            Exit
            
        Case $ComboBox
            ConsoleWrite(GUICtrlRead($ComboBox) & @CRLF)
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Use _GUICtrlComboBox_FindStringExact() to get the index of the selected item:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GuiComboBox.au3>

Global $hGUI, $ComboBox

$hGUI = GUICreate('ComboBox', 200, 200)
$ComboBox = GUICtrlCreateCombo('---', 0, 0, 200, 200)
GUICtrlSetData($ComboBox, 'ITEM1|ITEM2|ITEM3')

GUISetState()
While True
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            GUIDelete()
            Exit

        Case $ComboBox
            ConsoleWrite(GUICtrlRead($ComboBox) & _
        '  Index: ' & _GUICtrlComboBox_FindStringExact($ComboBox, GUICtrlRead($ComboBox)) & @CRLF)
    EndSwitch
WEnd
