Letters in "Input"

Started by UritOR,

Hi all,

How do I allow an input control (GUICtrlCreateInput) to get only digits and dots?

$ES_NUMBER - allows only digits, but I need to be able to type something like this only:   2.15.1598.1

Can you help me please?

use the on change event to assess the text field of the inputbox

if it's always the same number of dots and sets of digits you could have four input boxes, one for each number and append them together at the end separated by dots.  Use the $ES_NUMBER control style to restrict input to numbers only.

Try this. 

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>

GUIRegisterMsg($WM_COMMAND, "WM_COMMAND")

$hGui = GUICreate("My GUI edit")

$IP = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 10, 15, 200, 22)
$IP2 = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 10, 40, 80, 22)

GUICtrlCreateLabel("<- Digits and dots only.", 215, 15, 200, 22)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 12)
GUICtrlCreateLabel('<-  "n.nn.nnnn.n" pattern only.', 95, 40, 300, 22)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 12)

GUISetState()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
WEnd


Func WM_COMMAND($hWnd, $msg, $wParam, $lParam)
    $nNotifyCode = BitShift($wParam, 16)
    $nID = BitAND($wParam, 0x0000FFFF)
    If $nID = $IP Then ; Only digits and dots
        If $nNotifyCode = $EN_CHANGE Then
            GUICtrlSetData($IP, StringRegExpReplace(GUICtrlRead($IP), "[^0-9.]+", ""))
        EndIf
    EndIf
    If $nID = $IP2 Then ; Allow n.nn.nnnn.n characters only - where n is a digit. For example 2.15.1598.1 is allowed.
        If $nNotifyCode = $EN_CHANGE Then
            $temp2 = GUICtrlRead($IP2)
            $REPattern = "\d\.\d\d\.\d\d\d\d\.\d"
            $iLen = StringLen($temp2)
            If StringRegExp($temp2, StringLeft($REPattern, $iLen * 2)) = 0 Or $iLen > 11 Then GUICtrlSetData($IP2, StringTrimRight($temp2, 1))
        EndIf
    EndIf
    Return $GUI_RUNDEFMSG
EndFunc   ;==>WM_COMMAND

      StringReplace differentiating numeric values
      By coffeeturtle
      Hello. I need to perform a specific string replace, but not sure how to go about it.
      The scenario is this: I have a large block of text. Within the text colons appear ":",  Sometimes the colons are used in a sentence appearing after a word. Other times they appear in between numbers like a ratio or a sport score (e.g. "6:8").
      I want to replace the colons appearing between numeric values like 6:8 with the word "to", but not the ones appearing at the end of a sentence.
      Is there a way that I can have StringReplace (or any other method) differentiate when to replace the colon based on it appearing between numbers?
      I did try searching for a similar scenario.
      Thank you for any help.

      Algorithm for Adding/Subtracting numbers to find if number can be made
      By ur
      I was wondering if there is an efficient premade algorithm for determining if the sum/difference of a group of numbers can equal a different number. Example:
      5, 8, 10, 2, using + or -, to equal 9. 5 - 8 = -3 + 10 = 7 + 2 = 9
      It is somewhere nearer to Knapsack problem.
      Thanks in Advance.

      Hi everyone 
      I've read all yesterday forums , i think it's me , but i could not find a clue for this :
      I need to generate large numbers and output into csv format or excel format
      - Range between 3000000 and 9000000 
      - Need 5000000 numbers
      - Numbers should not be in series ( Mixed and Random )
      - I would prefere to have a check digits at the end
      Anyone could help please ?
       
      Thank you

      My rpn calculator can't compute negative numbers...
      By TheAutomator
      hi everyone!
      I need some help with my rpn calculator.
      I first translated it from vbscript to autoitscript and that's when i stumbled on problem one:
      (46) : ==> Array variable has incorrect number of subscripts or subscript dimension range exceeded.:
      $Stack[ubound($Stack)] = $Item
      ^ ERROR
      After that (and i know this from testing it as a vbscript) it can't work with negative numbers:
      "1 - - 2" to Reverse Polish notation = "1 - 2 -" gives me the build in error...
       
      Can you guy's help me with my code pleas?
