$Q = InputBox("yones7x & Example: 'InputBox'", "Enter your name!", "", "", 140, 130)
If $Q = "" Then
MsgBox(48+262144, "yones7x & Example: 'InputBox'", "x You Dont Write Any Thing x")
Else
MsgBox(64+262144, "yones7x & Example: 'InputBox'", "Your Name Is: '"&$Q&"'")
EndIf

Do you mean an input box, in which one can type different answers, or several radio buttons, so one can choose a defined answer?

thanx, but that is not what I wanted, i wanted something like the box says:

"Which material do you wanna use?"

and then the user should be able to for example choose between:

wood

steel

clay

gold

silver

without the user having to type it in, would be best if he could just click on the answer or something like that

best would be something like what is often used in the internet, there is an answerbox next to the question that opens when you click on it and you get to choose for example your birthyear between the numbers 1901 and 2012.

And after you chose click an ok button, most aweesome would be if you can have multiple questions and answers

and in the end klick a button when youre done

But if thats not possible it would be nice if there are buttons (each button with a diffrent answer) and you can click on one of em to choose the answer.

Is something like that possible in Autoit?

See the example here - Function GUICtrlCreateRadio, and this function may come in handy also - GUICtrlCreateLabel. Then read the whole Help file, even if only briefly. This may sound somewhat harsh, but I really don't care. Become even somewhat familiar with AutoIt's functions, and you will be surprised at how many doors suddenly open..

Thanks Bruce *g*

Pretty sure the Function GUICtrlCreateRadio should work fine for what i need.

I guess I will read the help file sometime, but for now I just wanna finish the program i am writing on

[somdcomputerguy]

Well I'm glad you didn't come back with some sort of flaming type of reply. Good luck with your project and welcome to the Forum.

Maarcel,

I guess I will read the help file sometime

I would make that sooner rather than later - or you (and we) are going to get very frustrated at you having to ask very simple questions.
