Checkbox status in a SysTreeView32

[ravenwish]

Hi,

While looking at topics from this forum, I saw a lot of topics talking about checkboxes in treeviews, but none resolved my problem.

There is my problem

I've tried hard to find a way to get the checkboxes status...but "False" is always the answer i receive.

I've tried _GUICtrlTreeView_GetChecked and ControlTreeView...and I always have the same issue.

Maybe I don't correctly use those functions.

GetText option in ControlTreeView gives my the text of the checkbox, then, I'm ok on a part of the problem

If someone could help me, it would be great.

(I need it because I'm building a unattended Windows format system. I have all the AutoIt programs to install my stuff. But, to be sure of the quality of the job, I'm building a format verification system that verifies all the steps of installation. I want to see if the 2 xheckboxes on the picture are checked. Yeah, I could only tell AutoIt to check the boxes, but if they aren't checked, then something happened in the installation. Then, I have to verify.)

I hope I'm understandable...

((Sorry, if some sentences or words seem weird...english is my second language ))

hi ravenwish,

These settings (cascading items in the start menu), are stored in the registry.

Have you tried to simply use a couple RegWrite() statements?

Example (for Win XP):

RegWrite("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced", "CascadeNetworkConnections", "REG_SZ", "Yes")
RegWrite("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced", "CascadePrinters", "REG_SZ", "Yes")

Using HKEY_CURRENT_USER makes these changes on a per user basis. Alternatively, for system wide configuration, you can use HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.

Also, you may want to check the help file for more information on RegWrite(), so you can add error checking to your code.

Hope this helps
