Gui Help

I know that as soon as someone answeras this that I'll see what I'm doing wrong.

#include <GUIconstants.au3>

GUICreate("Alpha")
$alphavariable1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Alph info", 50, 50)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

 
 
 $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
         Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
          Exit
        Case $msg = $alphavariable1 
        MsgBox(4096, "alpha info" ,"info:" & FileReadLine("C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\alpha1.txt", 1))
EndSelect

as soon as I activate the script the gui flashes on for a milisecond then closes.

thats what i wanted to answer

you just forgot the loop

your whole script should look like this

#include <GUIconstants.au3>

GUICreate("Alpha")
$alphavariable1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Alph info", 50, 50)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)


while 1
$msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
         Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
          Exit
        Case $msg = $alphavariable1 
        MsgBox(4096, "alpha info" ,"info:" & FileReadLine("C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\alpha1.txt", 1))
EndSelect
wend

Thanks as I said as soon as someone answered this it would be obvious.

Consider using @MyDocumentsDir in place of your hardcoded string.

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents

Edit:

To clarify to what your MsgBox line should look like

MsgBox(4096, "alpha info" ,"info:" & FileReadLine(@MyDocumentsDir & "\alpha1.txt", 1))
