But I haven't found a way to remove the maximise button

Ref:

You may be thinking of some code posted a long time back by rover which is what I based this function on.

#include <GUIConstantsEX.au3>
   #include <WindowsConstants.au3>
   $hGUI = _GUI_NoIcon("Test Window", 300, 200)
   GUISetState()

   Do
   Until GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

Func _GUI_NoIcon($sTitle, $iWidth = -1, $iHeight = -1, $iXpos = -1, $iYpos = -1)
   Local $GCL_HICONSM = -34, $GCL_HICON = -14
   Local $hWnd = GUICreate($sTitle, $iWidth, $iHeight, $iXpos, $iYpos, _
         BitOR($WS_CAPTION, $WS_SYSMENU), $WS_EX_DLGMODALFRAME)
   Local $hIcon = GetClassLong($hWnd, $GCL_HICON)
   DllCall("User32.dll", "int", "DestroyIcon", "hwnd", $hIcon)
   SetClassLong($hWnd, $GCL_HICON, 0)
   SetClassLong($hWnd, $GCL_HICONSM, 0)
   Return $hWnd
EndFunc   ;<==> _GUI_NoIcon()

Ref:

Both example are not working for me on Win7 x64 - always close icon only can be seen!

My example was only meant to show the close the button! Therefore it works

I thought this would work but it didn't!

#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

GUICreate("", 500, 500, -1, -1, BitAND($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, BitNOT($WS_MAXIMIZEBOX))) ; Idea from MrCreatoR
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    Sleep(10)
    If GUIGetMsg() = -3 Then
        Exit
    EndIf
WEnd

I found this script below. Can anyone translate this to AutoIt and tell me if it works?

Option Explicit

Private Const WS_MAXIMIZEBOX = &H10000
Private Const GWL_STYLE = (-16)

Private Declare Function SetWindowLong Lib "user32" Alias _
"SetWindowLongA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, _
ByVal nIndex As Long, ByVal dwNewLong As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function GetWindowLong Lib "user32" Alias _
"GetWindowLongA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, _
ByVal nIndex As Long) As Long


Private Sub MDIForm_Load()
Dim lngStyle As Long
lngStyle = GetWindowLong(Me.hwnd, GWL_STYLE)
lngStyle = lngStyle And Not (WS_MAXIMIZEBOX)
lngStyle = SetWindowLong(Me.hwnd, GWL_STYLE, lngStyle)
End Sub

Ref: http://www.xtremevbtalk.com/showthread.php?t=4495

Here the Autoit version:

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

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 250, 250, -1, -1,  BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX, $WS_TABSTOP))
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
Const $GWL_STYLE = -16
$lngStyle = _WinAPI_GetWindowLong($hGUI, $GWL_STYLE)
_WinAPI_SetWindowLong($hGUI, $GWL_STYLE,  BitAND($lngStyle, BitNOT($WS_MAXIMIZEBOX)))

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            GUIDelete()
            ExitLoop
    EndSwitch
WEnd

But it is not working! Is this a bit operation: lngStyle = lngStyle And Not (WS_MAXIMIZEBOX) ?

Btw, BitAND($lngStyle, BitNOT($WS_MAXIMIZEBOX)) = BitXOR($lngStyle, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX) !

_WinAPI_SetWindowLong($hGUI, $GWL_STYLE, BitXOR($lngStyle, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX, $WS_MINIMIZEBOX)) is removing Min/Max box only,
