USER MANAGEMENT CONSOLE

[nevodj]

Hi

Wondering if someone can help a bit of a beginner with some code... or give me some ideas / advice.

I'm building a user management console for my app to mange user login details and permissions.

The code for the GUI only (no functionality yet) is below with a screen print attached.

Basically I need to know the best way to save the data entered and return all the user info to the list box...

.ini file or SQL database or....??

You could save a string like:

TomS, Tom, Smith, H74G5Df3 (Encrypted password), tom@email.co, Read | Write | Delete | Create | AccessToAdminConsole (String containing permissions)

Only problem is i dont know how to save this and return it to the list box and to the edit boxes etc for editing.

$Input5 = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 352, 127, 121, 21)
$UserList = GUICtrlCreateListView("Login|Last Name|First Name", 8, 24, 250, 302, Default, $LVS_EX_GRIDLINES)
GUICtrlSendMsg(-1, $LVM_SETCOLUMNWIDTH, 0, 66)
GUICtrlSendMsg(-1, $LVM_SETCOLUMNWIDTH, 1, 90)
GUICtrlSendMsg(-1, $LVM_SETCOLUMNWIDTH, 2, 90)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
 
While 1
$Msg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch $Msg
  Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
   Exit
EndSwitch
WEnd

Appreciate any tips.

Thanks

Have you looked at filewrite() and fileread()?

[nevodj]

Yep... but could you parse it good enough?

Mainly where i'm stuck is putting the strings back in to the list box.

e.g if you had 30 users with strings like above.

Look at stringsplit() to break it back up after reading. ex:

$entry =  'TomS, Tom, Smith, H74G5Df3,  tom@email.co, Read | Write | Delete | Create | AccessToAdminConsole'
$aSplitData = StringSplit($entry, ',')

Will give you and array with:

$aSplitData[1] = TomS

$aSplitData[2] = Tom

and so on
