$put1 = GUICtrlCreateInput ("",4,25,200,25)

GUICtrlCreateLabel ("Multi line input",4,60)
$put2 = GUICtrlCreateEdit ("",4,80,150,100)

with this code the top input field works..

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
$nr = 0
GUICreate("test", 300, 250)
GUISetFont(12)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("one line input", 4, 4)
$put1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 4, 25, 200, 25)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Multi line input", 4, 60)
$put2 = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 4, 80, 150, 100)
$send = GUICtrlCreateButton("send all to file", 4, 215, 150, 25)
GUISetState()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
    If $msg = $send Then SendMyData()
WEnd

Func SendMyData()
    $nr =+ 1
    FileDelete('test.inf')
    $data = GUICtrlRead($put1) & @CRLF & @CRLF & GUICtrlRead($put2)
    IniWrite( "test.inf", "TMPSection", $nr, $data)
    MsgBox(0,'Info','Data written to test.inf')
EndFunc

have to look into why the bottom one doesnt work correctly..

[lordofthestrings]

to get the user file, make sure the filename is created with

@username

then you can do this without a selection box for the file, let the script decide by the user that launched it, which file to select..

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("test", 500, 100)
GUISetFont(12)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("please select your picture", 4, 4)
$put1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 4, 25, 200, 25)
$open = GUICtrlCreateButton("select picture", 210, 25, 150, 25)
GUISetState()


While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
            If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
            if $msg = $open Then
                FileOpenDialog ("open image", @DesktopDir , "images (*.bmp)")
            EndIf
WEnd

what I want is to select an *.bmp image using the select button and the input control will be = image path

Something like this?

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("test", 500, 100)
GUISetFont(12)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("please select your picture", 4, 4)
$put1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 4, 25, 200, 25)
$open = GUICtrlCreateButton("select picture", 210, 25, 150, 25)
$save = GUICtrlCreateButton("Save", 210, 55, 150, 25)
GUISetState()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $msg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
        Case $open
            $sFile = FileOpenDialog("open image", @DesktopDir, "images (*.bmp)")
            If Not @error Then
                GUICtrlSetData($put1, $sFile)
            EndIf
        Case $save
            If GUICtrlRead($put1) <> "" Then
                $sDest = FileSaveDialog("Save Image", @DesktopDir, "Images (*.bmp)", 16)
                If Not @error Then
                    FileCopy($sFile, $sDest, 9)
                EndIf
            EndIf
    EndSwitch
WEnd

thank you big daddy

actually I've used this way

FileCopy ($sFile ,@DesktopDir & '\new.inf',1)

it's very simple

cause I wanted the save button to save a copy without showing a save dialog and it worked just fine

thank you again

I just was having some fun with Bert about his praised effort.

Looks like you made some typo's in your code in the other topic. With a nice editor like Scite4AutoIt3, then making simple typo's should not happen too easy. Have a good look on the download page for it if you need to. AutoIt is great and if you commit time to learning then you will be much better latter on.

I thought the (praised) thing was about me - anyway thanks for the advice ...
