ranjit 0 Posted June 2, 2005 Hi. Can I read the state of a checkbox in a window? I tried the GUICtrlRead (controlID), but it's not working. my requirement is : I need to read the state of a checkbox in 'Properties' window of file/folder. It is mentioned in the help of autoit that 'ControlID' of GUICtrlRead () is the one returned by GUICtrlCreate..(). Does this mean GUICtrlRead () works only with the controls created using autoit script? Thanks, Ranjit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GaryFrost 18 Posted June 2, 2005 Try looking at ControlCommand in Window Managment in the help file SciTE for AutoItDirections for Submitting Standard UDFs Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
