well, here we go.. try this (i left old script intact)

changes:

removed the function to set the name, a lot easier to just set it directly

removed the next button, clicking on set name now moves the script along to the next screen

you had quotes around the point where you were trying to display the name set:

$name_lable = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Show name here", 10, 20)

$name_lable2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("$name_input, here", 120, 40)

so i changed this to be correct

hopefully all changes are clear.

I didn't go through the whole code, but I did notice you had a GUICtrlSetOnEvent() (Wrong syntax really for event close, should be GUISetOnEvent()) and GUIGetMsg(). The 2 don't work well together, might want to remove line 10 (although I don't see it effecting the code your asking about).

how can i make it still read it 2 windows after the window with the input

You've been told... GUICtrlRead().
