Hy, I'm a new student.

I just try to learn how to use a combobox on autoit and i have a big problem with it.. i can't imagine how it can read value from ini file.

this is my problem, i'd like to make a combobox with more than 3 value so user can select one of it. and the script will automatically read / write into config.ini

It's my unfinished work :

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Global $Checkbox_value; = true;false
Global $Combo_value; = 1;2;3
Global $ini_save_file = @ScriptDir & "\config.ini"

if FileExists($ini_save_file) = 0 then
    FileWrite($ini_save_file, "")
    IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Changes", "Checkbox_value", "false")
    IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Master", "Combo_value", "1")
EndIf

if IniRead($ini_save_file, "Options", "Checkbox_value", "true") = "true" Then
    $Checkbox_value = True
Else
    $Checkbox_value = False
EndIf

if IniRead($ini_save_file, "Master", "Combo_value", "1") = "1" Then
    $Combo_value = 1
Else
    $Combo_value = 0
EndIf

$Form = GUICreate("test", 203, 212, 192, 124)
$Checkbox = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Checkbox", 12, 8, 157, 17)
$Combo = GUICtrlCreateCombo("", 12, 32, 145, 25, BitOR($CBS_DROPDOWN,$CBS_AUTOHSCROLL))
GUICtrlSetData(-1,"1|2|3","1")
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

if $Checkbox_value = true Then
    GUICtrlSetState($Checkbox, $GUI_CHECKED)
EndIf

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
        If GUICtrlRead($Checkbox) = $GUI_CHECKED Then
            $Checkbox_value = true
            IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Options", "Checkbox_value", "true")
        Else
            $Checkbox_value = false
            IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Options", "Checkbox_value", "false")
        EndIf
        If GUICtrlRead($Combo) = 
         Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

What should i do for next..

thank's..

If you want to read in the values from an ini file, do something like this:

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <ComboConstants.au3>
#Include <GuiComboBox.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Global $Checkbox_value; = true;false
Global $Combo_value; = 1;2;3
Global $ini_save_file = @ScriptDir & "\config.ini"

If Not FileExists($ini_save_file) Then
    IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Changes", "Checkbox_value", "false")
    IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Master", "Combo_value1", "1")
    IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Master", "Combo_value2", "2")
    IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Master", "Combo_value3", "3")
    IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Master", "Combo_value4", "4")
    IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Master", "Combo_value5", "5")
    IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Master", "Combo_value6", "6")
    IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Master", "Combo_value7", "7")
EndIf

If IniRead($ini_save_file, "Options", "Checkbox_value", "true") = "true" Then
    $Checkbox_value = True

_ReadComboOptions_FromINI()
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

If $Checkbox_value = True Then
    GUICtrlSetState($Checkbox, $GUI_CHECKED)

Func _ReadComboOptions_FromINI()
    _GUICtrlComboBox_ResetContent($Combo)
    $aComboOptions = IniReadSection ($ini_save_file, "Master")
    For $x = 1 to $aComboOptions[0][0]
        GUICtrlSetData ($Combo, $aComboOptions[$x][1])
    Next
EndFunc

Owh, that not the point i'm looking. i mean, my problem just more simple.

like this : 

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <ComboConstants.au3>
#Include <GuiComboBox.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Global $Checkbox_value; = true;false
Global $Combo_value; = 1;2;3
Global $ini_save_file = @ScriptDir & "\config.ini"

If Not FileExists($ini_save_file) Then
    IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Master", "Combo_value1", "1")
EndIf

$Form = GUICreate("test", 203, 212, 192, 124)
$Combo = GUICtrlCreateCombo("", 12, 32, 145, 25, BitOR($CBS_DROPDOWN, $CBS_AUTOHSCROLL))
GUICtrlSetData(-1,"1|2|3","1")
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

there is already 3 option on the combo box, i just need to keep my changes on ini file.

then when i open it first time, it will select the default value (in this case is "1")

and i change it to "2" by selecting the value on the combo box, then when i close it.. << this is what i'm looking for, i need to keep my changes on config.ini so when i open the program back, i'll see, the value is not "1" anymore, but "2" cause i was change it before. i only need to keep my changes. not keep all of my value on config.ini

sorry for my bad english, and sorry if i make you confused. ^,^ i just try to explain what i need. coz i'm not really good in english. Thank's..

I gotcha, something like this then:

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <ComboConstants.au3>
#Include <GuiComboBox.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Global $Checkbox_value; = true;false
Global $Combo_value; = 1;2;3
Global $ini_save_file = @ScriptDir & "\config.ini"

If Not FileExists($ini_save_file) Then
    IniWrite($ini_save_file, "Master", "Combo_value1", "1")
EndIf

$Form = GUICreate("test", 203, 212, 192, 124)
$Combo = GUICtrlCreateCombo("", 12, 32, 145, 25, BitOR($CBS_DROPDOWN, $CBS_AUTOHSCROLL))
GUICtrlSetData(-1,"1|2|3")
_GUICtrlComboBox_SelectString($Combo, IniRead($ini_save_file, "Master", "Combo_value1", ""))
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            IniWrite ($ini_save_file, "Master", "Combo_value1", GUICtrlRead ($Combo))
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd
