customise enumicons.au3 into a program menu

[Degauss]

I am trying to modifiy enumicons.au3 into a menu of buttons where each button will run a program however nothing happens when I click any of the buttons!

programs.txt contains full and correct program paths.

Dim $aRecords
          _FileReadToArray("programs.txt",$aRecords)

on line 34 I changed this

$ahIcons[$iCurIndex] = GUICtrlCreateIcon($sFilename, $iCurIndex,_
        60 * $iCntCol + 25, 70 * $iCntRow + 80)

to this

$ahIcons[$iCurIndex] = GUICtrlCreateButton("test",60 * $iCntCol + 25, 70 * $iCntRow + 80, 40, 40, $BS_ICON)

with

GuiCtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "_runProg")

to make it run a prog when a button is clicked... but the function it calls at the end of the script never runs since uncommenting the msgbox does not even show a msgbox!

Func _runProg()
    run($aRecords[$iCurIndex+1])
;MsgBox(0,"This doesn't appear even when uncommented!","!")
EndFunc

emuicons.au3 script is in "MessageLoop Mode".

Your line: GuiCtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "_runProg") is only valid for scripts which are in "OnEvent Mode".

A single script can be only in one mode at a time.

For more information check GUI MessageLoop Mode and GUI OnEvent Mode in AutoIt help file.
