Damein Posted August 5, 2014 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.

BrewManNH Posted August 5, 2014 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.
