I bet its sooo simple

Hi guys

Im writing a program and its such a simple thing but i just cant get it lol. I have got a form with a checkbox on it. when selected the program writes out a small text file which ive got perfectly.

I want to be able to write a customers name in the text file and have made a input box GUICtrlCreateInput("input name", 296, 520, 249, 21). Ive tried the following;

GUICtrlCreateInput($custname, 296, 520, 249, 21)

and $custname = GUICtrlCreateInput("input name", 296, 520, 249, 21)

but i just cant seem to read what i write inthe box and then write it to the text file. How do i read the contents please?

thanks
