IsEnabled checked till 0

[Eli]

How would I keep checking ControlCommand($window, "", controlID, "IsEnabled", "") ?

I want to keep a GUI visible until an edit field in another program becomes disabled.

$x = ControlCommand($window, "", controlID, "IsEnabled", "")

it seems as tho If, For, and Do loops only checks it that first time

Use a while loop

While 1
$x = ControlCommand($window, "", controlID, "IsEnabled", "")
 If $x = 0 then (0 or what ever it would return I'm not sure of the value it would return without looking)
     What ever you want it to do goes here and if you want it to stop checking after this then add exitloop on the next line
     Exitloop
        Else
        Sleep (100)
  Endif

Maybe

While 1
    $func1 = ControlCommand($window, "", controlID, "IsEnabled", "") 
    If $func1 = 1 Then ExitLoop
    Sleep(200)
WEnd

or

While ControlCommand($window, "", controlID, "IsEnabled", "") <> 1
   Sleep(100)
Wend

Oh yeah.. much more economical

While IsEnabled, Sleep and loop to check again.

While ControlCommand($window, "", controlID, "IsEnabled", "")
   Sleep(100)
