Hi,

#include <GuiConstants.au3>

GuiCreate("Timings", 222, 125,-1, -1 , BitOR($WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS))

$Ok = GuiCtrlCreateButton("OK", 20, 80, 80, 30)
$Cancel = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Cancel", 120, 80, 80, 30)
$Name = GuiCtrlCreateLabel("Please enter timing details for ", 10, 10, 210, 20)
$Min = GuiCtrlCreateInput("", 10, 40, 20, 20)
$Min1 = GuiCtrlCreateLabel("min", 30, 45, 30, 20)
$Sec = GuiCtrlCreateInput("", 60, 40, 20, 20)
$Sec1 = GuiCtrlCreateLabel("sec", 80, 45, 30, 20)
$Ms = GuiCtrlCreateInput("", 110, 40, 20, 20)
$Ms1 = GuiCtrlCreateLabel("ms", 130, 45, 30, 20)

GuiSetState()

While 1
    
    $msg = GuiGetMsg()
    Select
    Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
        ExitLoop
    Case $msg = $Cancel
        ExitLoop
    Case $msg = $Ok
        $line = FileReadLine("p.txt")
        $Name2 = GuiCtrlCreateLabel("Please enter timing details for " & $line, 10, 10, 210, 20)
    Case Else
    ;;;
    EndSelect
WEnd
Exit

You need a text file called p.tx in the script directory. It is supposed to contain names of ppl. But the problem I have is that the name doesn't go on to the next one when I hit the OK button. Can someone pls help me out with this?

Thanks.

try using fileopen at the top of the script and fileclose on exit and use a handle for the filereadline
