I feel like an idiot why wont this work

$primaryGui = GUICreate("IR-Tools", 405, 490)

GUISetFont(9, 300)

;endregion

;region my computer

;/////////////////////// MY COMPUTER /////////////////////////

;-------------------------------------------------------------

$tab = GUICtrlCreateTab(5, 5, 398, 462,-1, $WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES)

$Runbox = GUICtrlCreateInput ( "", 150, 430, 225, 20)

GUICtrlSetState(-1,$GUI_ACCEPTFILES)

Looks like if the input is on a tab then the drag and drop isn't working properly

comment out the tab it works.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

$primaryGui = GUICreate("IR-Tools", 405, 490, -1, -1, -1, $WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES)

GUISetFont(9, 300)

;endregion
;region my computer
;/////////////////////// MY COMPUTER /////////////////////////
;-------------------------------------------------------------

;~ $tab = GUICtrlCreateTab(5, 5, 398, 462,-1, $WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES)
$tab = GUICtrlCreateTab(5, 5, 398, 462)
$Runbox = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 150, 430, 225, 20)
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_ACCEPTFILES)
GUICtrlCreateTabItem("")  ; end tabitem definition


GUISetState()
While 1
 $msg = GUIGetMsg()
 Select
  Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
   ExitLoop
 EndSelect
WEnd

you miss to create the tabitem

$tab = GUICtrlCreateTab(5, 5, 398, 462)
GuiCtrlCreateTabitem ("tab 0")
$Runbox = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 150, 430, 225, 20)
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_ACCEPTFILES)
GUICtrlCreateTabItem("") ; end tabitem definition

A direct working solution.

your example works but I can not seem to get multiple tabs working

[GaryFrost]

you miss to create the tabitem

$tab = GUICtrlCreateTab(5, 5, 398, 462)
GuiCtrlCreateTabitem ("tab 0")
$Runbox = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 150, 430, 225, 20)
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_ACCEPTFILES)
GUICtrlCreateTabItem(""); end tabitem definition

A big Duh on my part

Oh, excuse the delay. The Day of Thorn is my Day of Sport. Attached the Script. Let me know if you need a 3-third one.

But now it is real complete: Create the Gui, define the Tab (hnd), Show/hide what you don't want.
