Issue w/ Drag and Drop

[Centurion_D]

I got the drag and drop working but I have no idea on how to make the file path show up once I drag and drop it.

I'm not nearly done so bear with me...

; First build - finish GUI
#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("QuikInstall 2005 (Build 620 - Beta)",400,270)

$list = GUICtrlCreateEdit("Drag and Drop Files Here",5,5,350,210,-1,$WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES)
GUICtrlSetState($list,$GUI_ACCEPTFILES)
GUISetState()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    
    If $msg = $gui_event_close Then
        Exit
    EndIf

    If $msg = $gui_event_minimize Then
        WinSetState("QuikInstall 2005 (Build 620 - Beta)",@SW_MINIMIZE)
    EndIf
WEnd

There were several problems...

1.) When you only have one function to execute when using If...EndIf, then you can make it all in one line with no endif. Ill show you in the code below...

2.) Your WinSetState was missing the "text" parameter, but you don't need that winsetstate there? Because the window automatically minimizes when you click the minimize button! I'll show you in your code below.

3.) You forgot to add $WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES state to the extra style to the GUI

Heres the finished code...

; First build - finish GUI
#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("QuikInstall 2005 (Build 620 - Beta)", 400, 270, -1, -1, -1, $WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES)

$list = GUICtrlCreateEdit("Drag and Drop Files Here", 5, 5, 350, 210)
GUICtrlSetState($list, $GUI_ACCEPTFILES)
GUISetState()

While 1
   $msg = GUIGetMsg()
   
   If $msg = $gui_event_close Then Exit
WEnd

Bueno Suerte!

for some reason i took out that extended style...wish i hadn't now.

as for the rest, the minimize thing i didnt realize and i thank you for that, and the one line if endif statements are just my style...

thanks a bunch!!!

but now it only displays one file at a time...i kinda need many file paths to be displayed...
