Script refuse to stop executing on WinXP

[atzoref 1]

Hi,

It seems that there is a differece between these 2 OS: Win XP to Win 7

When I press on the "X" to close the GUI window:

On Win 7 it acutually closing the script and release processes, COM ports etc..

But in Win XP, the script has not been closed for some reason. So I need to do it manually by "Stop Executing" from the menu.

Here is the code for closing by "X"

While 1
$nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch
$nMsg
Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
     Exit

EndSwitch

WEnd

Why is that?

Can you please post the whole script so we can see what's going on?

atzoref,

I hope that the original script reads:

Switch $nMsg

and not as you have posted.

That code should work on all OS versions. Try creating a simple GUI and see if that behaves normally on your XP machine. If it does work, then there is something else in your code that is going wrong - so we would need to see the whole script to help.

I would take water's advice seriously, but the snippet you posted is incorrectly formatted, try this >>

While 1
    $iMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $iMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

yes of course, it's my mistake with the "Copy-Past"

Melba23, I will check and see.

Thanks
