creating array with keys and value's

[mschol]

i want to fill a combobox with the contents of a array

the array needs to be like this:

array(

key1 => value1,

key2 => value2,

key3 => value3,

)

i don't really know how this is called in english, but is it possible to create such an array?

or is there maybe a better way to fill a combo box with a list of keys.

little explanation of what I'm trying to make:

on the GUI i select in a drop down box a certain key (lets say: numpad 6 )

now when i press numpad 6 a certain function is called which does a couple of things.

in code i think it looks a bit like this:

$hotkeycombo1 = GUICtrlCreateCombo($array,10,10,100); 

HotKeySet($hotkeycombo1,"money");

Func money()
...
EndFunc

$array has to contain a array with keys and values (so you see the key and in the background the value gets assigned to $hotkeycombo1

anyone who can help me a little?

Hi,

Hi,

Use a 2-dimension array, so each item has a number of different values which can be written as "keys"/ "values"

See examples in my array2D.au3 from link in signature
