needing help with GUICtrlCreateInput

[cueclub]

Ok here it is I'm Back.

This is what I am needing to do. Set up 10 input boxes in a window. Write all the values to an ini file. All inputs have different keys.

I thought i was on the right track until I looked at the ini file it created. Keeps returning a value of "3"

It doesn't matter what I type into the boxes. once i click save it writes a value of 3 to the ini.

And here i thought i would make it 24 hrs without having to post on here.

I will keep working on it and checking back here also.

any and all ideas are appreciated. Thx from Cue

Maybe...

IniWrite("C:\Users\Main\Desktop\test.ini", "script test","test1", GUICtrlRead($test1))

Valuater,

thx, that did the trick. I just couldn't figure out how write and read in the same line would work together. Guessing i need to start thinking about this stuff in a different way.

Appreciate your help.
