Include text file in control

[Groumphy]

Hello,

I try to include a textual file of some lines in a control (Label).

Unfortunately, each tests indicates an error to me.

Here my method :

1 - To open the textual file

2 - To count the lines

3 - For each counted line, I read the lines in Array

4 - Concatenation of all Array in a variable

5 - Posting of the variable in control

Isn't it easier to read a file by using IniRead ?

Thank you for your councils...

what about just reading the whole file into a variable and putting that into your Label ?

Something like:

$Filename="YourFileName"
$FileText = FileRead($FIlename,FileGetSize($FileName))
$FileText = StringReplace($FileName,@CRLF,@LF)
$ControlHandle = GUICtrlCreateLabel($filetext,10,10)
; - or -
GUICtrlSetData($ControlHandle,$FileText)

Hello Jdeb,

Thank you for your assistance.

So easy ?!! Waw...

Unfortunately that does not function.

That registered (post) the name of the textual file and not the contents.

I thought thereafter that it was initially necessary to open the textual file but the result is the same one.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("My Gui", 200, 200, -1, -1)
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

$Filename= "test.txt"
$FileText = FileRead(FileOpen($Filename, 0), FileGetSize($FileName))
$FileText = StringReplace($FileName, @CRLF, @LF)
$ControlHandle = GUICtrlCreateLabel($FileText, 10, 10, 180, 180)
; - or -
; GUICtrlSetData($ControlHandle, $FileText)

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
Wend

Here the result :

Not cool

You need to store your FileOpen into a variable, so you can close it.

Your StringReplace was trying to work the file, rather then the FileRead return.

Try this:

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("My Gui", 200, 200, -1, -1)
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

$Filename= "test.txt"
$handle = FileOpen($Filename, 0)
$FileText = FileRead($handle, FileGetSize($Filename))
If @error = -1 Then Exit
$FileText = StringReplace($FileText, @CRLF, @LF)
$ControlHandle = GUICtrlCreateLabel($FileText, 10, 10, 180, 180)
; - or -
; GUICtrlSetData($ControlHandle, $FileText)
FileClose($handle)
While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
Wend

Hello,

Ok, it's now perfect !!

Thanks...

Why not this :

Func _InsertTxtFileToLabel($iFilename, $iLeft, $iTop, $iHeight, $iWidth)
    $iHandle = FileOpen($iFilename, 0)
    $iFileText = FileRead($iHandle, FileGetSize($iFilename))
    If @error = -1 Then Exit
    $iFileText = StringReplace($iFileText, @CRLF, @LF)
    $iVarCtrl = GUICtrlCreateLabel($iFileText, $iLeft, $iTop, $iHeight, $iWidth)
; - or -
; GUICtrlSetData($ControlHandle, $FileText)
    FileClose($iHandle)
EndFunc

    #include <GUIConstants.au3>
GUICreate("My Gui", 200, 200, -1, -1)
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

_InsertTxtFileToLabel("test.txt", "10", "10", "60", "60")
_InsertTxtFileToLabel("test.txt", "10", "90", "180", "100")

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
Wend

Hello,

In relation with this topics, I've a small problem.

I make a small derivation of the previous script and in place of a GUICtrlCreateLabel, I use a GUICtrlCreateInput and the text is well include in the label but I've no scroll in the Input and the text of my textfile stay on one line...

Where is my error ?

Here is my code :

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("My Gui", 200, 200, -1, -1)
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

$Filename= "test.txt"
$handle = FileOpen($Filename, 0)
$FileText = FileRead($handle, FileGetSize($Filename))
If @error = -1 Then Exit
$FileText = StringReplace($FileText, @CRLF, @LF)
$ControlHandle = GUICtrlCreateInput($FileText, 10, 10, 180, 180, $ES_AUTOVSCROLL + $ES_READONLY)
; - or -
; GUICtrlSetData($ControlHandle, $FileText)
FileClose($handle)
While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
Wend

The problem come of then "Enter/Cariage".

I've try to change the StringReplace @CRLF, @LF by @LF, @CRLF but it's the same. I've try too with : Chr(13), Chr(10).

Is it possible to have an insertion of a textfile in an Input with a scroll ?

Thanks for your help,

G.

Hello,

I've found the problem. There was a bad formating of the textfile and I much use an Edit at place than an Input.

Thanks for your help and sorry for the disturb.
