& Symbol In Label

[CurtisWhitby 0]

Hi,

I have a radio button with a label.

The label consists of 2 names:

GUICtrlCreateRadio("Bill & Ben")

For some reason AutoIt reads the "&" as "_".

Is there some way around this or do I need to fully write "and"?

Thanks in advance,

Curtis

Use two &...so

GUICtrlCreateRadio("Bill && Ben")

The & signifies the hotkeys, so you can press alt, plus the following char to select that control

The Ampersand (&) is commonly used in many languages as some type of "hot key" for a GUI. you see this with the File, Edit, Tools. where the F, E and T are underlined. you can access these menus by pressing ALT + F/E/T

without getting much more into it, to fix your problem, double up the ampersand to cancel out the first ampersand. like so: Bill && Ben
