need to learn more about GUICtrlCreateCombo

[bogQ]

GUICtrlCreateCombo ("item1", 830,60,150,15,$CBS_DROPDOWNLIST+$CBS_SORT+$CBS_AUTOHSCROLL)

GUICtrlSetData(-1, "Avxvxc|bzdhkasd|dashdaskjsa|ddskalsja")

so it will bring on list sorted data

Avxvxc

bzdhkasd

dashdaskjsa

ddskalsja

item1

but i cant edit that data becose its in script it self (exe)

i need a way to get data to the list from txt or some other file

if i have list.txt and it have 300-400 lines with data on line looking like this

^my number is^my name is^my address is^my phone is^

so how do i put only "my number is" to the combo from every line of the txt file, note that file dont have every time same number of lines

shud i use, to see how many lines have that file, and than loop GUICtrlSetData on every line to get all the data from txt or there is some other way?

Try the _GuiCtrlCombo* functions vice GuiCtrl*. They should be able to work with controls from other windows.

Try to build&use an ini file or if you already have the file try to read the info you need from each line and build the content of your combobox.

Maybe it will be a good idea to show a little bit of your file content in order to give you the most appropriate answer.
