Lokdal Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 hello, I was wondering if there was a way to code a simple msgbox with "ok" button where the button *is not* selected by default. the purpose of this is you can't accidentally hit "ok" with the enter key when the box pops up... I've found 3 options so far : 0 First button is default button 0x0 256 Second button is default button 0x100 512 Third button is default button 0x200 but does the possibility for "no default button" exist ?
Moderators Melba23 Posted February 8, 2011 Moderators Posted February 8, 2011 Lokdal,Welcome to the AutoIt forum. I am not sure that there is a simple way to do this with the standard API MsgBox. But if you look at the ExtMsgBox UDF in my sig, you can do this (and a lot more) easily with virtually the same syntax as the standard MsgBox.

Here is a GUI without Buttons. Just enter your data and press enter. The enter key will not work until some data is present. Maybe you can use this. Regards REBblank.au3 MEASURE TWICE - CUT ONCE
