Linking Multiple Boxes to a previous ctrl

[Dreidor]

Hi, I'm trying to create my first gui, and i'm searching a easy way to link multiple boxes (1,2,3,4,5,6) to a control (primary) that has 4 choice (a,b,c,d)

I've been already successful to link one box to 2 ctrl, but now that i need to link 6 boxes to only one ctrl, i'm searching for a clean code solution: what i have now is:

func changeboxes()
$statsw = GUICtrlRead($primary)
Switch $statsw
Case 'a'
GUICtrlSetData($1, '')
guictrlsetdata($2, '')
GUICtrlSetData($1, "test")
guictrlsetdata($2, "test")

etc etc, for 6 boxes and 4 cases....

Now... is there a good solution to keep the code clean?

I hope i've chosen the right words to make the problem clear ^^'

Thanks

What do you mean when you say "boxes"?

whoops.... my bad... i meant comboboxes

Post the code you've tried so far, because I'm not 100% sure of what it is you're trying to accomplish and I don't want to have to come up with a solution that doesn't do what you want it to do.

There's a lot of code missing in your script, this doesn't even run, and I'm still not sure what it is you're trying to do with it. For one thing, you don't have any controls assigned to $1, $2, $3, etc.
