Input Box - Cancel

[tworak]

hi,

Ive looked all through the manual and various posts but cant see a definate way of making use of the cancel button on an input box.

Basically when the cancel button is hit on the inputbox id like the script to stop execution al together.

heres my current code i would appreciate any help

; AUTO clear / close from open - 4200

Sleep(1000)

$ref = InputBox("AutoLT", "Enter Sips Ref #", "", "")

; Now that the IFMS window is active type some text

; Make the IFMS window Active

WinActivate("IFMS -")

; Initial Comment

Send("c{ENTER}{ENTER}{ENTER}")

Send("Modem Found to be Faulty")

Send("{F5}")

Sleep(1000)

; Clear the ticket and close the ticket - with codes: opt - ds2 - h/w - mrp

Send("s{ENTER}")

Send("Modem Swapped, Via Sips.{ENTER}Ref: ")

Send($ref)

Send("{F5}")

if u get the @error u can check if it does so heres what it would look like

$ref = InputBox("AutoLT", "Enter Sips Ref #", "", "")
if @error = 1 Then
    Exit
Else
WinActivate("IFMS -")
Send("c{ENTER}{ENTER}{ENTER}")
Send("Modem Found to be Faulty")
Send("{F5}")
Sleep(1000)
Send("s{ENTER}")
Send("Modem Swapped, Via Sips.{ENTER}Ref: ")
Send($ref)
Send("{F5}")
EndIf

Modified to

$ref = InputBox("AutoLT", "Enter Sips Ref #", "", "")

Select

Case @error = 1; The cancel button was pushed

Exit

EndSelect

And its all working perfect

TY for the help
