Message Box

[craigholohan]

Hi,

I am trying to make a little app that can be used to change text in a file, most is working but I am now stuck on getting a message bok to operate in a certain way.

Below is the bit of script I am having problems with, it works fine but what I want is when calling this function I would like a message box first telling me that "$findMAC " was found and in what line it was found then ask if I want to replace it with "replaceMAC", if "findMAC" was not found then message mus indecate "findMAC" was not found in "filename"

Func _changeMAC()

If Not IsDeclared("iMsgBoxAnswer") Then Local $iMsgBoxAnswer

$iMsgBoxAnswer = MsgBox(36,"INFO", "Are you sure you want to replace " & $findMAC & " with " & $replaceMAC)

Select

Case $iMsgBoxAnswer = 6 ;Yes

$retval = _ReplaceStringInFile($filename,$findMAC,$replaceMAC)

FileClose($filename)

GUICtrlDelete ($Edit_1)

$Readit = FileRead($filename)

$Edit_1 = GuiCtrlCreateEdit($Readit, 20, 30, 480, 390)

Case $iMsgBoxAnswer = 7 ;No

EndSelect

EndFunc

Please can someone point me into the right direction?

Thanks

Have a look at the function _ReplaceStringInFile in File.au3.

I expect you will be able to make sense of it. You could copy this function to your script, rename it to something and modify it to do what you want. Then call this function instead.

Does that make sense?
