Command for Start Button to run script?

[experience]

I've got a GUI with a start button on it - how do i run the rest of the script when its pressed? Attached is an example and when the start button is pressed the script should start which in this case is a mouse move

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

;GUICreate("my gui", 300, 150) ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered
;GUISetState (@SW_SHOW)   ; will display an empty dialog box
;Opt("GUICoordMode",2)
$Button_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton ("Start",  50, 90, 100)
$Button_2 = GUICtrlCreateButton ( "Stop / Exit",  0, -1)

; Run the GUI until the dialog is closed
While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
    Case $msg = $Button_1
;need command to start script further down
        
Case $msg = $Button_2
    Exit
   
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
        EndSelect
    Wend


MouseMove(1200, 400)

GUICreate("my gui", 300, 150) ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered
GUISetState (@SW_SHOW)    ; will display an empty dialog box
Opt("GUICoordMode",2)
Opt("GUIOnEventMode",1)
$Button_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton ("Start",  50, 90, 100)
$Button_2 = GUICtrlCreateButton ( "Stop / Exit",  0, -1)


GuiSetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE,"Quit")
GuICtrlSetOnEvent($Button_2,"Quit")
GuiCtrlSetOnEvent($Button_1,"DoScript")

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func DoScript()
    MouseMove(1200, 400)
EndFunc

Func Quit()
    Exit
EndFunc

IMO it is better to use event mode for your purpose so $Button_2 will work even if your code is executing. Put the rest of your code inside the DoScript() func.

Excellent Thanks

Just one more thing - how do i integrate my progress bar into the same GUI - when the script runs the progress bar opens in a separate window

GuiSetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE,"Quit")
GuICtrlSetOnEvent($Button_2,"Quit")
GuiCtrlSetOnEvent($Button_1,"DoScript")

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func DoScript()
ProgressOn("Progress Bar", "Running","0 percent", 300, 40)
$pbar = 0
ProgressSet( $pbar, $pbar & " percent")
MouseMove(1200, 400)
MouseMove(600, 400)
$pbar = 100
ProgressSet( $pbar, $pbar & " percent")
EndFunc
Func Quit()
    Exit
EndFunc

Look at GuiCtrlCreateProgress(). Then you set the progress with GuiCtrlSetData(). If you use Koda to design the gui its under the "Win32" tab.

Spot on - managed to recreate it using the GuiCtrlCreateProgress() like you said

Everythings now done - however i've just noticed that the stop/exit button doesnt work when the script is running. It works fine before you click the start button

Have i missed something?

Take a look at "GuiOnEventMode".
