I am trying to learn AutoIt, and i'm doing okay. But i have a question. How do I make a checkbox change what a button does. Like, if i had a button that displayed a messagebox saying "Hello" how would i set up a checkbox that when checked, the button will instead display a messagebox saying "Goodbye"

Here is an example. You should look at GUICtrlRead() in the helpfile:

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=
$Form1 = GUICreate("Example", 182, 73, 192, 124)
$Checkbox1 = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("GoodBye", 16, 8, 97, 17)       ; Here is the checkbox - $Checkbox1 is the variable we need to read using GUICtrlRead()
$Button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Button1", 8, 40, 163, 25)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $Button1                              ; Button1 pressed
            If GUICtrlRead($Checkbox1) = $GUI_CHECKED Then  ; Checkbox is checked
                MsgBox(0, "Example", "Goodbye!")
            Else                        ; Checkbox not checked
                MsgBox(0, "Example", "Hello!")
            EndIf
    EndSwitch
WEnd
