inputbox from .ini file

[sabhazi]

Hello,

I am creating a script to remote force logoff computers.

This part is working:

$data = InputBox("Test", "Enter computername.")

if $data = "*" Then

MsgBox (16, "Info", "Not allowed" & @CRLF & @CRLF & "Restart the program" ,30)

Else

ShellExecute("psshutdown.exe", "-o -f -accepteula -u administrator -p 1234567 \\" & $data, @SW_MINIMIZE)

EndIf

Now i want to add a dropdown list with computers from a .ini file of .txt file. And also is not allowed to enter a computername by typing...

Can anybody help me out?

Thx

Just look at building your own gui with a ComboBox.

Give it a try by looking at the examples in the helpfile.

Done that

Look:

#include <File.au3>

#include <Array.au3>

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

;read file and load it to array

Dim $aPcs

_FileReadToArray("wks.txt",$aPCs)

;Create window

$Form1 = GUICreate("MCH Remote Force Logoff", 300, 139)

$Combo1 = GUICtrlCreateCombo(" -Computer Selecteren- ", 40, 23, 229, 125)

$Check = GUICtrlCreateButton("Force Logoff", 96, 76, 113, 35)

;Load Pc's into combobox

For $i=1 To $aPcs[0]

GUICtrlSetData($Combo1,$aPCs[$i] & "|")

Next

;Show GUI

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

;Main Loop

While 1

$nMsg = GUIGetMsg()

Switch $nMsg

Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

Exit

Case $Check

ShellExecute("psshutdown.exe", "-o -f -accepteula -u administrator -p 123456 \\" & GUICtrlRead($Combo1))

EndSwitch

WEnd

Now only i need a way to protect the combo box for manual typing info in the box... i cannot find that :S. I have tried to work with $CBS_DROPDOWNLIST but where i have to put this?

[Jos]

$CBS_DROPDOWNLIST is a Style:

GUICtrlCreateCombo ( "text", left, top [, width [, height [, style [, exStyle]]]] )

[sabhazi]

oke, i understand but how can i protect the combobox for manual typing data?

Is there another way? this is my first script.

Thx for your help

Have you tried what Jos has recommended before re-asking your question? To use $CBS_DROPDOWNLIST in the style parameter of the GUICtrlCreateCombo function call? You will need to add #include <ComboConstants.au3> to your include list to do this. So, if you've already done this, what happened?
