GUIinput Question

[NSearch]

How do I get $duplicate_report_name to equal what is entered in the input box, instead of getting "Please Enter Name" every time?

GuiCtrlCreateLabel("Save as:", 60, 257)

$duplicate_report = GUICtrlCreateInput("Please Enter Name", 105, 255, 130)

$duplicate_report_name = GUICtrlRead($duplicate_report)

Thanks.

That seems fine to me. I think maybe you have line...

$duplicate_report_name = GUICtrlRead($duplicate_report)

Outside of your loop. Put it inside your loop so its constantly up to date, if that doesn't help post your whole code.

hope the example helps

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
$main_gui = GUICreate("testing script", 200, 100)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Save as:", 5,20,55)
$duplicate_report = GUICtrlCreateInput("Please Enter Name", 60, 20, 130)
$button_create = GUICtrlCreateButton("Duplicate",60,45,60)
$button_close = GUICtrlCreateButton("Close",120,45,60)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
Do
    $gui_msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
        Case $gui_msg == 0
            ContinueLoop
        Case $gui_msg == $button_create
            $duplicate_report_name = GUICtrlRead($duplicate_report)
            MsgBox(0,"testing script","Inputted Value: " & $duplicate_report_name)
        Case Else
            ContinueLoop
    EndSelect
Until $gui_msg == $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
Exit
