As you can see, a script tries to pass a command to another script, but that doesn't work here. Why?

HI,

??? what problem?

So long,

Sorry, I was updating the main post. Things should be correct now.

Here's the deal: I use a file, called Messages.ini, where two scripts can pass data to each other. At a certain point, I ask the first script to pass "HideTrayIcon" to the second one. The second script should catch the command using a While loop that constantly checks if a new message is passed to it, but it doesn't seem to catch the command. What could be wrong?

[SmOke_N]

$checkformsg = IniRead("Messages.ini", "Messages", "Tray", "")
ToolTip($checkformsg, 0, 0)

Would probably tell you. Is the .ini in the same directory as the script(s) you are using?

[Pieter]

Yup.

Both scripts use IniWrite("Messages.ini" or IniRead("Messages.ini"
