I'm trying to make a GUI interface that recieves data from my Archangel.ini as default, but can be changed and then saved to the .ini from the GUI program. I'm having trouble creating the save button function that actually writes to the .ini file. Any help would be much appreciated.

My ConfigurationGUI.au3

Just reverse the process you use to read from the INI file when you're writing to it. When you press save, you can (for example) use IniWrite($FullIniPath, "LogOptions", "LogDetail", $LogDetail). This will write to the LogOptions section, in the key LogDetail the contents of the variable $LogDetail.

I'm not a mind reader, post the script so I can see what you're doing and perhaps I can figure out what is wrong.

It exits because you put an ExitLoop in there after the first IniWrite statement, after it leaves the While loop, there's nothing left for it to do so it closes.

Is $ShowSpeed a variable that holds a control ID for a control of some sort? If so, use GUICtrlRead($ShowSpeed) instead.

Thank you BrewMan

EDIT: $ShowSpeed was the variable that holds the default selection from the .ini

Using the GUICtrlRead function instead of putting in the $ShowSpeed variable, which did not particularly work, I put in the handle for the drop down box selection GUICtrlRead(10); which succesfully worked.

Never EVER use hard coded numbers in place of controlIDs or handles. Assign the control IDs and handles to a variable when you create the controls in your script, and always use the variable in the rest of the script. All it takes is for you to add or remove a control and the whole script starts acting weird, with no indication of why it's acting the way it is.

Can you show me an example of the single variable holding all the controlIDs? I don't know if you meant variables or really did mean variable

Obviously I didn't mean assign them all to the same variable, that would be silly. You create either a separate variable for each control you're going to need to interact with later, or create one array that holds all the control IDs.

I'm having trouble getting the $Index to hold the 1-10 numbers so that I don't have to write all the windows priorities out and instead use a loop to plugin 1, 2, 3, etc.. If more of my code needs to be posted let me know, but thanks for the help everyone.

Figured it out; heres the code for it.

;creates the while loop for the cancel button and the save button/saves configuration settings as well
While -1
   $msg = GUIGetMsg()
   Select
   Case $msg = $ButtonCancel Or $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
 Quit()
   Case $ButtonSave 
 IniWrite("Archangel.ini", "ProgramOptions", "ShowSpeed", GUICtrlRead($Speed1))
 IniWrite("Archangel.ini", "ProgramOptions", "SpeedLimit", GUICtrlRead($Speed2))
 IniWrite("Archangel.ini", "Communication", "Port", GUICtrlRead($Commun1))
 IniWrite("Archangel.ini", "Communication", "Baudrate", GUICtrlRead($Commun2))
 IniWrite("Archangel.ini", "ProgramOptions", "Block", GUICtrlRead($Block1))
 IniWrite("Archangel.ini", "ProgramOptions", "RunPlates", GUICtrlRead($RunP1))
      ;creates a for loop to plugin 1-10 using index for the windows priorities and maximize boxes
 For $Index = 1 to 10
        IniWrite("Archangel.ini", "WindowPriorties", "WindowPriority" & $Index, GUICtrlRead($PRI[$Index]))
   IniWrite("Archangel.ini", "WindowPriorties", "WindowMaximize"  & $Index, GUICtrlRead($MAX[$Index]))
      Next
;ConsoleWrite($result & $ShowSpeed & @CR)    ;error detector
   EndSelect
WEnd

I have another question. Lets say that one of my windows priorities is "Example1" and I want to enter Example2 into the program; instead of the code; how if I'm using GUICtrlCreateCombo and GUISetData would I be able to do this?

EDIT: There is no way to do what I wanted to do with GUICtrlCreateCombo; I had to change all of them to GUICtrlCreateInput like so:

$PRI[1] = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 10, 55, 100) ;creates input control
GUICtrlSetData($PRI[1], $IniPriority[1], $IniPriority[1]) ;puts data into input control for priority input
