Create Tab based on value from ini file

Recommended Posts

Not sure what I'm doing wrong of if it's possible. I'm still learning AutoIt and was wanting to keep this as simple as I can understand. A lot of the lines of code come from the Help File.

I need to be able to display tabs only if a value of 1 is found for it in an ini file. This script works, but it also auto-launches additional Case selections of the script during the loop. If both tab values are 0 in the ini file, the correct Case statement is ran. If either or both values are 1, then I get the auto-launch of additional Case statement. How would I stop this so it only displays the tab or tabs based on the ini value?

Thanks for all your help.

tmcadmin,

Welcome to the AutoIt forum. :graduated:

The Case is firing because GUIGetMsg returns 0 when no events are queued and you have not given a value to $tab0_btn2 - so the Case matches and fires immediately creating the MsgBox. :)

The solution is to give any pre-defined control a placeholder value (I always use 9999 as I have never got close to that many controls in a script!) so that the Case does not fire unless the control is actually created.

Please ask if that explanation is not clear enough. ;)
