Confussed by Combobox

[RaiNote]

Good evening all,

My Question is how to make that my GUI Combobox gets a text of an file but If i press some functions it will Show someother Thing but from another file.

ITEM1|ITEM2|ITEM3|...

will be inplented in the Combobox but if it gets as example ITEM3 it will Show up the third one of

1023|7632|3123|...

"3123" will be showed within a MsgBox or written to another file o_o

I am asking because i don't want to make for every single ITEM of the Combobox an GuictrlRead($blabla) >.< would there be a faster way :/

Thanks in advance.

RaiNote,

Assuming a one to one correspondence of combo items to lines in file...

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GuiComboBox.au3>
#include <file.au3>
#include <array.au3>

; read the files to arrays...do not populate offest 0 with count
local $aFile1, $aFile2
_FileReadToArray(@scriptdir & '\File1.txt', $aFile1, $FRTA_NOCOUNT)
_FileReadToArray(@scriptdir & '\File2.txt', $aFile2, $FRTA_NOCOUNT)

local $gui010 = guicreate('Combo Example')

local $cFile1 = GUICtrlCreateCombo('',20,50,100,20)
guictrlsetdata($cFile1,_arraytostring($aFile1,'|'),$aFile1[0])

guisetstate()

while 1
    switch guigetmsg()
        case $gui_event_close
            Exit
        case $cFile1
            msgbox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL,'Display Record', $aFile2[_GUICtrlComboBox_GetCurSel($cFile1)])
    EndSwitch

WEnd
