KillerSam Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 (edited) In my program I have a "notes section" which is an input box that has multiple lines. I want it so the user can store these notes to a .ini file. At the momment when they click the "store" button, all of the input boxes content is being stored but like so: CODE [Notes] Notes=entryline1 entryline2 entryline3 This means that when I read the .ini with: $note_input = GUICtrlCreateInput(IniRead("C:\WINDOWS\Temp\stored.ini","Notes","Notes",""),10, 230, 475,60, $style) I hope that helps. Edit: also: $style = $ES_MULTILINE++$WS_VSCROLL++$ES_WANTRETURN ^^ I think thats the cause, the "return" key is forcing it to store them on seperate lines in the .ini.

PsaltyDS Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 This is the command I have to store my text in the .ini file.

KillerSam Posted April 16, 2007 Author Share Posted April 16, 2007 Nope, this does not work . The other option I guess is to have the script recognise each line individualy? So then it can store in the ini as: note1=ahaha note2=gaegaega note3=gagaga depending on the line that is on, is this possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eltorro Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 (edited) You could try substituting a special char sequence for each carriage return when you write each value and then substitute the carriage return for the special sequence when the value is read back.$value = "This"&@CRLF&"is"&@CRLF&"MulitLine" IniWrite ( "Test.ini", "Multi-Line","Multiline", StringReplace($value,@CRLF,"[\r\n]" )) $value = StringReplace(IniRead("Test.ini", "Multi-Line","Multiline",""),"[\r\n]",@CRLF) MsgBox(0,"test",$value) ExitEdit: Typed vhen instead of when.

PsaltyDS Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Good tip. I hadn't come across the situation and didn't realize there was an issue with it. Might want to pick something less likely to occur in the normal data than a backslash that might be in every file path in the ini file: $IniFile = @ScriptDir & "\Test.ini" $String = "This is" & @CRLF & "a multiline" & @CRLF & "value." IniWrite($IniFile, "Test", "Multiline", StringReplace($String, @CRLF, "<br>")) $Result = StringReplace(IniRead($IniFile, "Test", "Multiline", ""), "<br>", @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("$Result = " & $Result & @LF) Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...

intime69 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 $IniFile = @ScriptDir & "\Test.ini" $String = "This is" & @CRLF & "a multiline" & @CRLF & "value." IniWrite($IniFile, "Test", "Multiline", StringReplace($String, @CRLF, "<br>")) $Result = StringReplace(IniRead($IniFile, "Test", "Multiline", ""), "<br>", @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("$Result = " & $Result & @LF) This works great!
