Help with input please.

Ok, so I've been working on a program that refreshes (plain f5 refresh) however i want to be able to define the time between the refreshes manualy every time i start the program. So, what script should I use?

Currently I'm trying with

$time = GUICtrlCreateInput("time",90,150,75,25)

and

Sleep($time)

however, the only response I get from this is the number 8, So is there a way to concert the number inserted by the

GUICtrlCreateInput

?

Thanks in advance, Zio

Have you looked at the helpfile for this function and its examples?

Why are you not using InputBox when all you need is this one prompt?

The reason I'm using GUICtrlCreateInput is because I have a GUI in the beginning of the script with a small description, and I want to define the interval of refreshing in this GUI.

I've checked the Help index but could not find something helpful :S

Nvm, I fixed it.

Now it gives me the number 0...

The example shows you need to use GuiCtrlRead() to read the value of a control. The number returned by the GuiCtrlCreateInput() is just the Handle for the control.
