How to read - or + value from GUICTRLREAD ?

Tripoz,

When using comparisons it is important to make sure you are comparing similar datatypes (number to number, string to string) or you may not get what you want. Run this to see what I mean:

#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

$sString_1 = "2.00"
$sString_2 = "-1.00"

; Wrong answer! Strings are compared lexically
If $sString_1 > "1.00" Then
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "OK!", $sString_1 & " > 1.00")
Else
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Really", $sString_1 & " <= 1.00")
EndIf

If $sString_2 > "1.00" Then
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Really?", $sString_2 & " > 1.00")
Else
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "OK!", $sString_2 & " <= 1.00")
EndIf



; Correct answer. Numbers are compared numerically

If Number($sString_1) > 1.00 Then
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "OK!", $sString_1 & " > 1.00")
Else
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Really", $sString_1 & " <= 1.00")
EndIf

If Number($sString_2) > 1.00 Then
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Really?", $sString_2 & " > 1.00")
Else
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "OK!", $sString_2 & " <= 1.00")
EndIf

Forcing the values into number datatype gives you the correct answer every time.
