Crash after loading while loaded?...

[Rad 0]

Just so you know, memfield is the text area and membtn3 is the "Open" button

Case $msg = $mem_btn3
        $backup=GUICtrlRead($mem_field)
        GUICtrlSetData($mem_field,"")
        $file=FileOpenDialog("Import Trigger Data", @DesktopDir, "Text files (*.txt)",1)
        If @error <> 1 Then 
            GUICtrlSetData($mem_field,FileRead($file,1024))
        Else
            GUICtrlSetData($mem_field,$backup)
        Endif

Now for some strange reason the first time you load it works like a charm, the second time you can load but you have to be VERY quick. If you hover your mouse on a .txt file at the preloaded directory, it will get probrably to where the little box pops up saying the program name/type/size... then BAM my program crashes.

Any reason why?

Did you try Clearing $file like you did the $mem_field to see if that worked?

Case $msg = $mem_btn3
        $backup=GUICtrlRead($mem_field)
        GUICtrlSetData($mem_field,"")
        $file = ''
        $file=FileOpenDialog("Import Trigger Data", @DesktopDir, "Text files (*.txt)",1)
        If @error <> 1 Then 
            GUICtrlSetData($mem_field,FileRead($file,1024))
            FileClose($file)
        Else
            GUICtrlSetData($mem_field,$backup)
        Endif

Edit: Just noticed you were using FileRead()... Are you closing the file at all?

Its crashing with "invalid file handle used" ??

maybe try this

Case $msg = $mem_btn3
    $backup = GUICtrlRead($mem_field)
    GUICtrlSetData($mem_field, "")
    $file = FileOpenDialog("Import Trigger Data", @DesktopDir, "Text files (*.txt)", 1)
    If @error <> 1 Then
        GUICtrlSetData($mem_field, FileRead($file, FileGetSize($file)))
    Else
        GUICtrlSetData($mem_field, $backup)
    EndIf
