SmOke_N 199 Report post Posted July 31, 2006 Please use code tags when posting code. MsgBox(4096, "Your Name:", GUICtrlRead($Input_1)) 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.

BPBNA 1 Report post Posted July 31, 2006 $Input_1 as you now know isnt the actual value that you type in, it is the control ID.... just so you know for the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
i542 1 Report post Posted July 31, 2006 $Input_1 as you now know isnt the actual value that you type in, it is the control ID.... just so you know for the future.Instead $input_1 you can enter some your text, so $input_1 can also be named $name. So you can see what is what.Confusing? i542 I can do signature me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
