need help useing create combo

[netrecov]

GuiCtrlCreatecombo("Drives", 250, 80, 120, 100)

GUICtrlSetData(-1, "A|B|C|D|E|F|G|H|I|J|K|L|M|N|O|P|Q|R|S|T|U|V|W|X|Y|Z")

$varA = ControlGetText("Drives", "", "")

$wssetup = GuiCtrlCreateButton("wssetup", 320, 145)

GUICtrlSetOnEvent($wssetup, "wssetup")

Func wssetup()

Run($varA & ":\wfx32\wssetup.exe")

EndFunc

ok here is what it says now. I still can't figure this out. I think I am overlooking something. I am just wanting to be able to change drive letter for that program.

You need to use GUICtrlRead instead of ControlGetText; also, you need to assign a variable for combo handle.

$MyCombo = GuiCtrlCreatecombo("Drives", 250, 80, 120, 100)

and

$varA = GUICtrlRead($MyCombo)

Don't worry - such mistakes are common at the begining

hope this helps

The $varA will need to be set after the combo has changed.

Func wssetup()
    $varA = GUICtrlRead($MyCombo)
    Run("$var & :\wfx32\WWSETUP.EXE")
EndFunc ;==>wssetup

BTW, it's much easier to read code if you enclose it in tags

[tagname]

...code

[/tagname]

You can use tag names of code or autoit.
