ini not writing corretly.

[MerkurAlex]

why does this write 0 ive done this before though i dont remember how i want the text in the input to write to the key in an ini

iniwrite("message.vncv","mesg","message",guictrlread($efile))

Note:this is just part of the code the rest has the gui stuff.

If your using a checkbox or a radio then u must BITAND the control's data.

Ex.

BitAND(GUICtrlRead($efile))

Start with some down and dirty troubleshooting... make sure of your inputs first:

MsgBox(4096,"",guictrlread($efile))
;iniwrite("message.vncv","mesg","message",guictrlread($efile))

ok so the msgbox also returns 0 so ive tried many other things i think i need to do some kind of getdata just like the setdata function for guictrls

[MerkurAlex]

figured it out

Cool.

While you were doing that I threw an example together (mostly from the help file). You no longer need it, but perhaps someone else will.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate(" My GUI input box", 320, 120, @DesktopWidth / 2 - 160, @DesktopHeight / 2 - 45, -1, 0x00000018)
$input = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 10, 5, 300, 20)
$btn = GUICtrlCreateButton("Ok", 40, 75, 60, 20)

GUISetState()

$msg = 0
While $msg <> $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()

    Select
        Case $msg = $btn
            ExitLoop
    EndSelect
WEnd

MsgBox(4096, "Value of Input Box", GUICtrlRead($input))
IniWrite("message.txt", "mesg", "message", GUICtrlRead($input))
