IF Statment Question

[JWoodruff 0]

Hello Everyone,

What may be a simple If Statement question...

Can we use 'and' in an if statement in AutoIt?

For example

if $A =1 and $B = 1 and $C = 1 then
;do what ya want
else
;do something else
endif

I'd rather not do nested if statements if i can avoid it.

Thanks in advance!

Are you working in SciTE? That makes it easy to just try something like that to see if it works... but yes, you can use both "AND" and "OR" in your conditional statements.

Yes and you can mix it up using AND and OR in your statements.

If $a == 1 And $b == 3 Or $a == 2 Or $c == 15 Then
   ;; do something
Else
   ;; do something else
EndIf

Edit: Opps, PsaltyDS posted just before I submitted this. And the yeas have it.

Yes, I am working in SciTE...

Looks to be a syntax issue. I think I have it worked out. In short I am validating the value of an input field. The value is being returned as "4104" verses NULL when a value has not been entered. Any idea why?

I think you need to show us some of the code.

Ok sorry about the confusion. I've got it worked out. I was attempting to validate the value of the input control variable and not the GUICtrlRead(of that input control)

if GUICtrlRead($DBInput) <> "" and GUICtrlRead($UserInput) <> "" and GUICtrlRead($PassInput) <> "" Then 
    IniWrite("c:\databases.ini",$c,"database",GUICtrlRead($DBInput))
    IniWrite("c:\databases.ini",$c,"User",GUICtrlRead($UserInput))
    IniWrite("c:\databases.ini",$c,"Pass",GUICtrlRead($PassInput))
    RefreshDB()
Else
     msgbox(48,"Error","You must enter all fields to continue!")
EndIf

Originally I was attempting to validate the value of $DBInput and not GUICtrlRead($DBInput)

Thanks again for your assistance!
