How to create new variable for each result ?

[dirty]

This function finds file/reads it and if match display it in ListView that i later need to read (each displayed search result)

Func _searchName($dir)
    Local $ArrTargetItems, $TargetItem
    If (StringRight($dir, 1) = "\") Then $dir = StringTrimRight($dir, 1)
    $ArrTargetItems = _FileListToArray($dir, "*", 0)
    If IsArray($ArrTargetItems) Then
        For $n = 1 To $ArrTargetItems[0]
            $TargetItem = $dir & '\' & $ArrTargetItems[$n]
            If StringInStr(FileGetAttrib($TargetItem), "D") Then ;This is a folder
                _searchName($TargetItem) ;Call recursively
            Else ;This is a file
    If StringRight ($TargetItem,4) = ".ini" Then
     $GetNameFromResult = IniRead ($TargetItem,"Project","Name","")
     $GetCountFromResult = IniRead ($TargetItem,"Project","Count","")
     $GetNumberFromResult = IniRead ($TargetItem,"Project","Number","")
     $GetCategoryFromResult = IniRead ($TargetItem,"Project","Category","")
     $GetLocationFromResult = IniRead ($TargetItem,"Project","Location","")
     If StringInStr ($GetNameFromResult, GUICtrlRead ($SearchByName)) > 0 Then ;display result based on Name
      GUICtrlCreateListViewItem ($GetNameFromResult & "|" & $GetCountFromResult & "|" & $GetNumberFromResult & "|" & $GetCategoryFromResult & "|" & $GetLocationFromResult,$Results)
     EndIf
    EndIf
            EndIf
        Next
    EndIf
EndFunc

How to i make displayed result's (when many) readable by guictrlread if GUICtrlCreateListViewItem when created has no variable assigned ?

GUICtrlCreateListViewItem is created for each result, so it needs to be created under new variable each time How do i do this ?

Thanks in advance.

Best thing to do is create an array and dinamically adjusting it using REDIM and UBOUND

[dirty]

Can you give an example that i can implement into this function without changing it ?

Since i dont know what Redim and Ubound do, i am clueless what you talk about, but sure if you provide an example (as simple as possible) i will learn.

Thanks for quick reply. This project takes more time then rewriting bible (not fare) so i thought i'd ask for help to speed it up

Creates array with 4 elements (0 to 3)

Dim $X[4]

ReDeim $X[5] takes the prev array and adds another new empty element at the end.

Ubound($X) gives you how many elements the array has.

You can check it all in the help file.

If you are stuck with not knowing what a function do, always check the help file (F1) and use the Index(search for names of the functions) or Search(you know some word that has to do with the function) tabs.

My guess will be this..

Global $aArray[1] = [999999]     ; At the top of the script

$hGui = GuiCreate("Test")
$Button = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Add 1 Item",10,10,100,30)
$iListView = GuiCtrlCreateListView("Let See",10,50,380,330)
$aArray[0] = $iListView ; I have to put some value in this index because it gives me some errors in the msgloop
GuiSetState()

While True
    $iMsg = GuiGetMsg()
    Switch $iMsg
        case -3
            Exit
        case $Button
            Redim $aArray[Ubound($aArray) + 1]
            $aArray[Ubound($aArray) - 1] = GuiCtrlCreateListViewItem("New Item",$iListView)
        case $aArray[0] to $aArray[Ubound($aArray) - 1]
            If $iMsg = $iListView then ContinueCase
            MsgBox(0,"ListViewItem", "You have Clicked in the item ID "&$iMsg)
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Cool thanks. But how come return value is always numbers instead of whats in the listview separated by | ?

If guictrlsetdata ($listView,"Item1|Item2")

then why guictrlread ($listView) does not return string that is in those columns separated by | ?

[BrewManNH]

Listviews are unique in that you have to read the contents of a selected item like this GUICtrlRead(GUICtrlRead($Listview))

[dirty]

AH THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!!! GUICtrlRead(GUICtrlRead($Listview))

Return is now Lacrimal Duct Probes Set of 5|1|N/A|General|General cart|

Now how do i separate those so that Lacrimal Duct Probes Set of 5 go into one input field and so on ?

Not sure how to string modify this string to separate it by pieces

You can separate them by using StringSplit.

$ListviewItemText = GUICtrlRead(GUICtrlRead($Listview))
$SplitLineArray = StringSplit($ListviewItemText, "|")

This will create an array ($StringSplitArray), where element [0] is the number of items in the array, the [1] element would have "Lacrimal Duct Probes Set of 5", [2] would equal "1" [3] would equal "N/A", etc. You could then use the array to populate your input boxes.
