Quick syntax question for combo box


 Share

Recommended Posts

Group,

This is probably pretty quick but I've tried a couple of different pieces of code with no success. I'm looking to create a combo box in a gui and I want it to display a list of numbers, specifically 001 through 100 (using all 3 digits to display). Obviously I could do this the long way and actually add each number such as:

GUICtrlSetData(-1, "001|002|003|004")
etc. until I get to 100. But i'm sure there should be something similar to:

for $i = 001 to 100

but I have not been able to get this to work.

hope this makes sense... any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

;Look up IncrementStringAsNum , that and concatenation should do the trick. Edited by flyingboz

Does this work for you ? _GUICtrlListInsertItem

All by me:

"Sometimes you have to go back to where you started, to get to where you want to go."

For $additem = 001 to 100
    if $additem < 010 Then
        GUictrlsetdata($Combo1,'00' & $additem)
        Endif 
    if $additem > 09 Then
        GUIctrlsetdata($Combo1,'0' & $additem)
        Endif
        if $additem > 099 Then
        GUIctrlsetdata($Combo1,$additem)
    EndIf

Replace $Combo1 with your name, it also adds 0100 to it, don't know why.

Or :) :

For $additem = 1 to 100
    $Replace = StringReplace(StringFormat('%3g', $additem), ' ', '0')
    MsgBox(0, '', $Replace)
Next

The forum was quiet, so I thought I'd give an example of it in action:

#include <GUICONSTANTS.AU3>

$MainGui = GUICreate('ComboTest')
$Combo = GUICtrlCreateCombo('Choose Number', 10, 10, 200, 100)
GUICtrlSetData($Combo, _ComboInsertNum(1000, 3), 'Choose Number'); 1000 and 3 are optional, just used to show you you could change it... You could use _ComboInsertNum() just like that.. if you wish

GUISetState()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    If $msg = - 3 Then Exit
WEnd

Func _ComboInsertNum($i_Count = '100', $i_LeadingZeros = '3')
    Local $i_Data = ''
    For $i = 1 to $i_Count
        $i_Data = $i_Data & StringReplace(StringFormat('%' & $i_LeadingZeros & 'g', $i), ' ', '0') & '|'
    Next
    Return StringTrimRight($i_Data, 1)
EndFunc
I'm not sure if StringFormat() will require Beta or not... Edited by SmOke_N

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.
