Help on a script

[eekhoorn12]

Why does this script return 3

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate ( "title" , 800 , 600 ) ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered
$RESULT = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 110, 40, 100, 20)

$Start = GUICtrlCreateButton ("OK",  60, 70, 50)
GUICtrlSetState(-1,$GUI_DEFBUTTON)
GUISetState (@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
        Case $MSG = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

        Case $msg = $Start
            MsgBox(0, '', $RESULT)
    EndSelect
Wend

It's showing you the control id, if you move the $start above the $result, you should get $result to return "4" as an example.

Example:

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate ( "title" , 800 , 600 ); will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered
$Start = GUICtrlCreateButton ("OK",  60, 70, 50)
$RESULT = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 110, 40, 100, 20)

GUICtrlSetState(-1,$GUI_DEFBUTTON)
GUISetState (@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
       Select
           Case $MSG = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

           Case $msg = $Start
               MsgBox(0, '', $RESULT)
       EndSelect
Wend

In case you're still wondering, to see the value of the input field you want to change your MsgBox() line to this:

MsgBox(0, '', GUICtrlRead($Result))
