Impossible Request?

[Blue_Drache]

I'm not asking for anyone to code for me, so please don't get that into your head. I've illustrated what I'd like and want to know if it is possible to achieve.

I want a GUI that has a button that is the default in the case that enter is pressed in a text entry field and will take run the appropriate "CASE" statement as if the mouse button had clicked it. At the same time, the text entry field should have the focus by default with any default text entered selected for typing over.

See picture for any clarification (if needed)

Go...go...gadget PAINT!

can DLLCall + SetWindowLong + BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON be used to change a button to a default at runtime?... this may be a start...

remember whenever using SetWindowLong use GetWindowLong first then BitOR in the BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON.

Uh...DLLCall is over my head at this time. Seriously. Majorly Greek to me.

I meant, can this be done with the standard routines currently built into AutoIt?

If not, then I suppose I could pull out the help file and start tackling DLLCall.

Example: Note the $BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON and the $GUI_FOCUS.

I feel like such a nooblet....(sigh). Thanks for taking me to school, Mike. That did exactly what I wanted.

Slightly OT...

How can I tie the enter key in a widget created by GUICtrlCreateCombo() to the same function that is called when a user selects an item?

I'm afraid I don't understand the question, could you rephrase?
