Input Box Return Value

[Chobyhy]

Global $Test

Func _NewAccountForm()
    $NewAcc = GUICtrlCreateInput("Default", 100, 90, 100, 20)
    $AddNewAcc = GUICtrlCreateButton("Add", 100, 115, 50, 20)
    GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "_AddNewAccount")
    $AddNewAccCancle = GUICtrlCreateButton("Cancel", 150, 115, 50, 20)
    GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "_AddNewAccountCancle")
EndFunc

Func _AddNewAccount()
    If Not $NewAcc = "" Then
    $AccountCount = IniRead($IniDir, "Main", "Acc", "0")
    $AccountCount = $AccountCount + 1
    IniWrite($IniDir, "Main", "Account" & $AccountCount, $NewAcc)
    IniWrite($IniDir, "Main", "Acc", $AccountCount)
    EndIf
EndFunc

This is just a part of the code and the problem is that it keeps writing in the Ini that $NewAcc = 14 even though I put in a different value in the inbox. Any suggestion?

the problem is that you need GuiCtrlRead() to retrieve the value from controls , so try:

Global $Test

Func _NewAccountForm()
    $NewAcc = GUICtrlCreateInput("Default", 100, 90, 100, 20)
    $AddNewAcc = GUICtrlCreateButton("Add", 100, 115, 50, 20)
    GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "_AddNewAccount")
    $AddNewAccCancle = GUICtrlCreateButton("Cancel", 150, 115, 50, 20)
    GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "_AddNewAccountCancle")
EndFunc

Func _AddNewAccount()
    If Not GuiCtrlRead($NewAcc) == "" Then
    $AccountCount = IniRead($IniDir, "Main", "Acc", "0")
    $AccountCount = $AccountCount + 1
    IniWrite($IniDir, "Main", "Account" & $AccountCount, GuiCtrlRead($NewAcc))
    IniWrite($IniDir, "Main", "Acc", $AccountCount)
    EndIf
EndFunc

PS: add GuiCtrlRead() anywere else you are reading from a control

Just for reference, Gif is correct, and what it is returning without reading it first is the ID / handle of the control. You always need to use GUICtrlRead(), unless you specifically want to get the handle.
