#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>


$Form1 = GUICreate("Window Hider", 398, 79, 299, 241)
$input = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 136, 8, 249, 21)
$txt = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Enter Window Name Here", 8, 10, 128, 17)
$hButton = GUICtrlCreateButton("Hide", 160, 40, 75, 33, $WS_GROUP)
$shButton = GUICtrlCreateButton("Show", 16, 40, 75, 33, $WS_GROUP)

            If $hButton Then
            WinSetState($Directory, "", @SW_HIDE)

i revised your code and here is what i got to work:

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>


$Form1 = GUICreate("Window Hider", 398, 79, 299, 241)
$input = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 136, 8, 249, 21)
$txt = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Enter Window Name Here", 8, 10, 128, 17)
$hButton = GUICtrlCreateButton("Hide", 160, 40, 75, 33, $WS_GROUP)
$shButton = GUICtrlCreateButton("Show", 16, 40, 75, 33, $WS_GROUP)
$Exit = GUICtrlCreateButton("Exit", 312, 40, 75, 33, $WS_GROUP)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)



While 1
    $Directory = GUICtrlRead($input)
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $Exit
            Exit
        Case $hButton
            WinSetState($Directory, "", @SW_HIDE)
        Case $shButton
            WinSetState($Directory, "", @SW_SHOW)
    EndSwitch
WEnd

what i did was change the select loop into a switch loop and took out the if then's. i also made it loop the $directory so that it checks the name every time the loop starts over. hope you learned from that

expandcollapse popup

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>


$Form1 = GUICreate("Window Hider", 398, 79, 299, 241)
$input = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 136, 8, 249, 21)
$txt = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Enter Window Name Here", 8, 10, 128, 17)
$hButton = GUICtrlCreateButton("Hide", 160, 40, 75, 33, $WS_GROUP)
$shButton = GUICtrlCreateButton("Show", 16, 40, 75, 33, $WS_GROUP)
$Exit = GUICtrlCreateButton("Exit", 312, 40, 75, 33, $WS_GROUP)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)



While 1
    $Directory = GUICtrlRead($input)
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    $window = WinExists($Directory)
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $Exit
            Exit
        Case $hButton
            If $window = 0 Then
                MsgBox(0, "Error", "window dosen't exist")
            Else
                WinSetState($Directory, "", @SW_HIDE)
            EndIf
        Case $shButton
            If $window = 0 Then
                MsgBox(0, "Error", "window dosen't exist")
            Else
                WinSetState($Directory, "", @SW_SHOW)
            EndIf
    EndSwitch
WEnd

if the window doesn't exist then the script wont hide or show.

edit: fixed the code and discription
