Total newbie need start help with edit line using menu box

[hahn]

Hi in here.

Ya i am not a programmer and i have to start from the beginning using this autoit but I am looking for a way to edit a line in notepad.

If I have a notepad saying

From line 1 to 121 is some standard default script to maybe cisco or anything and then in:

Line 122 name xxxxxxx

Line 123 ip address xxxxxxxx

Line 124 something more

Is there a simple way to do this:

Wind I click open an autoit program I will get an box with 4 files say:

Inset name:

Inset IP

Inset port

Inset vlan

Then a butten there say crate.

This will open a notepad inset name in line 122, ip in 123 and so on and after this it will save the notepad under the name it has inset in line 122?

I think this have to be made before in time, but if not is there any out there thad have an idar to this?

I have try with notepad2 from autoit install and put the default in there, to start the notepad, but I am sure there is a better way?

Hope someone can help me here.....

Cheers

Start with FileOpen() and be sure to check the flags.

See if you can get just that one simple line of code written.

Hello Jimmy,

Here is something i did fast to give you an idea on how to do what you want:

expandcollapse popup

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <FileConstants.au3>
#include <File.au3>
#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=
$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 739, 614, 561, 191)
$Label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Configuration editor", 208, 24, 325, 41)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 24, 400, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
$Label2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("File to edit:", 32, 160, 94, 24)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 12, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
$Input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("Input1", 152, 160, 425, 21)
$Browse = GUICtrlCreateButton("Browse", 608, 160, 105, 25)
$Label3 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Name", 48, 232, 50, 24)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 12, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
$Label4 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("IP address", 32, 304, 90, 24)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 12, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
$Label5 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Port", 56, 376, 37, 24)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 12, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
$Label6 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("VLAN", 48, 440, 50, 24)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 12, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
$Input2 = GUICtrlCreateInput("Input1", 152, 232, 425, 21)
$Input3 = GUICtrlCreateInput("Input1", 152, 304, 425, 21)
$Input4 = GUICtrlCreateInput("Input1", 152, 376, 425, 21)
$Input5 = GUICtrlCreateInput("Input1", 152, 440, 425, 21)
$Button2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Beam me up Scotty!", 240, 528, 201, 65)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 12, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $Browse
            $result = FileOpenDialog("Select file to open","C:\", "All (*.*)")
            GUICtrlSetData($Input1, $result)
        Case $Button2
            $file = ""
            _FileReadToArray(GUICtrlRead($Input1), $file)
            $file[122] = GUICtrlRead($Input2)
            $file[123] = GUICtrlRead($Input3)
            $file[124] = GUICtrlRead($Input4)
            $file[125] = GUICtrlRead($Input5)
            _ArrayDelete($file, 0)
            $file_name_lenght = StringLen(Guictrlread($Input1))
            $file_delimitor = stringinstr(GUICtrlRead($Input1), "\", 0, -1)
            $file_folder = $file_name_lenght - $file_delimitor
            $file_new_name = StringTrimRight(GUICtrlRead($Input1), $file_folder)
            _FileWriteFromArray($file_new_name & GUICtrlRead($Input2) & ".txt", $file)
            msgbox("","Enterprise to bridge", "Aye aye captain!")
    EndSwitch
WEnd

This will only work if the file you select has 125 lines or more

I did not include any checkup to see if anything selected / written is correct so it might fail if not used correctly. I let you figure out how to do this so you work a bit on it at least

Enjoy
