Damein Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) I feel like I'm being stupid but I'm not understanding something... I have an array of 20 with 20 different button associated with it. IE: $Button[1] = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Button 1") ect. ect. $Button[2] = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Button 2") ect. ect. And so on. Now the text of the button (Button 1, Button 2 ect.) can change at anytime someone sets the text to something else. So what I need to do is detect when someone presses a button, which variable is associated with it. IE: $Button[$i] = GuiCtrlCreateButton("", 20, $Y, 160,30) GuiCtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "_Action") And then when that button is pressed it goes to the function _Action and then reads which button was pressed. I can read the text of the button just fine but I can't seem to find out how to read what variable is associated with said button.. I have an ID but that isn't what i want. I wan't just the number. IE: If button[1] is pressed, I wan't the 1, not the ID or the text, I wan't the 1. So like if $Button[18] is pressed, I wan't the number 18 pulled not the text of button #18 I'm sure I am just not thinking clearly.. But thanks in advance! Oh, and I know I can accomplish this with setting up multiple functions that happen each time a specific button is pressed like so but I would rather not do that, I wan't it all into one function. Button[$i] = GuiCtrlCreateButton("", 20, $Y, 160,30) GuiCtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "_Action1") Button[$i] = GuiCtrlCreateButton("", 20, $Y, 160,30) GuiCtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "_Action2") ect. ect. (Not the right coding way, but you get the idea) Edited August 5, 2014 by Damein Most recent sig.

BrewManNH Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 If you're using OnEvent mode, you can loop through the array's contents to see which of the control IDs match @GUI_CtrlId in your function. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.
