Simple Msgbox Question

[Jakobi]

Hello,

I am new to this and had a question. I have a msg box that is set to yes/no. How do I define upon selection the next action, if that makes sense.

IE.

If they press yes I need it to open a file, and if they press no it closes the script?

Thanks for any direction.

Also, is there a way to change the autoit icon so that the scripts can appear different to my users.

Hi,

If MsgBox(4, "Example", "Press a button :-)") = 6 Then
    MsgBox(0, "OK", "You pressed Yes!", 3)
Else
    MsgBox(0, "Cancel", "You pressed No!", 3)
EndIf

And compile with options offers the possibility to change the icon.

So long,

Mega

If you use SCITE as your editor it has awsome tools in it to help you code. The tool you want is called CodeWizard and will make any kind of message box you want + a whole lot more.

Thank you. I am unable to find "Codewizard" in the downloads, am I over seeing something?

Cheers

I guess I only had AutoIt installed before...so now I have it. Thanks. Also figured out how to change the icon. Thanks again.

Is this close:

If MsgBox(4100, "Pipeline Reports", "Would you like to try to logon now?", 60) = 6 Then
    FileGetShortcut("shortcut.lnk")
Else
    MsgBox(0, "Cancel", "Any questions then contact me.", 3)
EndIf

Is this close...trying to get it so when yes is clicked it opens my shortcut

That will not open your shortcut but will give you info about the shortcut.

Untested, but I imagine ShellExecute will work:

If MsgBox(4100, "Pipeline Reports", "Would you like to try to logon now?", 60) = 6 Then
    $aSCut = FileGetShortcut("shortcut.lnk")
    If IsArray($aSCut) Then 
        ShellExecute($aSCut[0])
    Else
         MsgBox(16, 'Error', 'There was an error getting the Path')
    EndIf
Else
    MsgBox(0, "Cancel", "Any questions then contact me.", 3)
EndIf

Edit:

Guess it would help if I knew that FileGetShortCut() returned an array
