Guest Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) Hey GUIs Sozz i cant share my script but is is secret! OK I have an $input = inputbox("script", "type something", "Here") lets say you type 'hello' I want separate things to happen to different characters ie turn them into separate variables. I dont think that makes sense so I will put it into an example! $words = inputbox("Word", "Enter some text ", "") ;some scripts turn $words to $letter_1 and $letter_2 and so on... msgbox(4096, "Word", "letter 1 was" & $letter_1) msgbox(4096, "Word", "letter 2 was" & $letter_2) ;And so on... ;But i need the $letter_? bit to use for my script ;so no msgbox Cheerz Edited March 23, 2012 by Guest
rosaz Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 How about StringMid? $letter_1 = StringMid($words, 1, 1) $letter_2 = StringMid($words, 2, 1)
water Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Why do you need variables named like that in your script? Couldn't you just do a StringSplit and then use the resulting array?
