GuiCtrlCreateInput to an array

[dinodod]

Is there any ability to have a GuiCtrlCreateInput with multiline option enabled to be passed to an array? I am trying to make a list of PCs that I want to check for something but I am having a problem with this function becoming an array. Right now, I have to use notepad.

CODE:

$Input_PCList = GuiCtrlCreateInput("hi", 310, 50, 270, 170,BitOr($ES_MULTILINE,$ES_AUTOVSCROLL,$ES_WANTRETURN,$WS_VSCROLL))

$Button_ListPCs = GuiCtrlCreateButton("List PCs", 50, 50, 90, 30)

---

Case $msg = $Button_ListPCs

;msgbox(0,"",GUICtrlRead($Input_PCList))

If Not _FileReadToArray(GUICtrlRead($Input_PCList),$PCList) Then

MsgBox(4096,"Error", " Error reading PC List. Error:" & @error)

;Exit

Else

For $x = 1 to $PCList[0]

Msgbox(0,'Record: ' & $x, $PCList[$x])

Next

EndIf

Does the code you posted work

Use StringSplit on the result you get from your input control.

I am not seeing the light on this....

I have my inputbox with multiline option enabled

I then have my code which searches for @CRLF

yet when I test my script, I am getting an extra value being returned

when I try the following:

this

test

I get:

this

test

as being seen by my script. I thought it was the '\n' string I needed to add but thus far, it's eluded me. Thoughts??

$array = StringSplit(GUICtrlRead($Input_PCList), @CRLF, 0) ;@CRLF

msgbox(0,"",$array[0])

For $x = 1 to $array[0]

msgbox(0,"",$array[$x])

next

exit

I found StringStripCR & StringIsSpace by accident which poitned me to the right direction

$array = StringSplit(GUICtrlRead($Input_PCList), Chr(13), 1)

Also helps if I read the help content.

"Caution if you use the macro @CRLF you are referring to a 2 character string so you will generate extra blanks lines."
