how do I name the "color" like "color_$var" ?

"color_" & $var

Run ( "mspaint.exe problem 'screenshot' & $i & '.jpg'.bmp" )

I don't understand what the word "problem" is doing in there... is it part of the file name? And is the file extension .jpg, or .bmp or .jpg.bmp?

On the assumption that this is just a bunch of typos:

; This will open screenshot1.bmp thru screenshot3.bmp
For $i = 1 To 3
    Run('mspaint.exe screenshot' & $i & '.bmp')
Next

that's what I meant, thank you.

how about this ?

$color_on_record = IniRead ( "color.ini", "1", 'color' & $loop & , "default" )
                        ; how do I name the "color" like   "color_$var"  ? )

$color_on_record = IniRead ("color.ini", "1", "color" & $var)

If this is not what you meant, provide an example ini file with a few entries and what you want from it.

oh doh, pasted a wrong section

IniWrite ( "color.ini", 1, "color_" & $var , $color )

is what I need; naming keys that begin with color_ with $var.

That was close, if the name of the section is '[1]'. The section name has to be a string an you technically made it an integer one by not putting quotes around it, but AutoIt is very forgiving and that would probably work anyway. If the section name is not '[1]' then you need to fix that second parameter. i.e. for a section name of '[Color List]':

; Saves the color as color_9:
$color = 0x00FF00 ; Green
$var = 9
IniWrite("color.ini", "Color List", "color_" & $var, $color )
