Displaying 4 Sub-GUIs form a ROOT GUI

[autocomplex]

I am trying to get a script to work that allows the user to select which gui to display. It then hides the selection screen and displays the GUI, that the user has selected (ALL OF THIS WORKS ). However, when the user clicks a menu button to go back to the selection screen it supposed to hide the user-defined gui and once again display the selection gui, thus brining us back to the begining.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

Global $selection = 0

;ROOT GUI
$SELECTGUI = GUICreate("", 301, 186, 359, 202)
GUISetBkColor(0x000000)

$AFRadio = GUICtrlCreateRadio("", 162, 130, 15, 15)
$AFLabel = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Option 1", 177, 130, 95, 15)

$NextButton = GUICtrlCreateButton(">> Next >>", 104, 160, 75, 17, 0)

;OPTION 1 GUI

$AFGUI = GUICreate("AF", 266, 351, 359, 202)
GUISetFont(8, 400, 0, "@Arial Unicode MS")
GUISetBkColor(0x000000)

$AFMenuFile = GUICtrlCreateMenu("&File")
$AFMenuStart = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("Start!", $AFMenuFile)
$AFMenuStop = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("Stop", $AFMenuFile)
$AFSelection = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("Selection Menu", $AFMenuFile)
$AFMenuPreferences = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("Preferences", $AFMenuFile)
$AFMenuExit = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("Exit", $AFMenuFile)

;MAIN LOOP
While 1
   
    Selection()
    BackToSelection()
   
   
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
       
    Case $msg = $AFSelection
        BackToSelection()

    EndSelect

Wend   

Func Selection()
    While $selection = 0

    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
         

         Case $msg = $AFRadio
            $selection = 1
           
        Case $msg = $PCRadio
            $selection = 2
           
        Case $msg = $PFRadio
            $selection = 3
           
        Case $msg = $HMRadio
            $selection = 4 

        Case $msg = $NextButton 

        If $selection = 1 Then
        GUISetState(@SW_HIDE, $SELECTGUI)
        GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $AFGUI)
        EndIf

    EndSelect   
    Wend
EndFunc 

Func BackToSelection()
    If $selection = 0 Then
        GUISetState(@SW_HIDE, $AFGUI)
        GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $SELECTGUI)
    EndIf   
EndFunc

I cant get it to close the OPTION 1 GUI and display the ROOT GUI again.

Note, I know it says 4, but i shortened it to one for example purposes.

Well, I tried to run your example and got this:

C:\Documents and Settings\Bill.FEARMOBILE\My Documents\scripts\randm crap\hfskudf.au3(54,29) : WARNING: $PCRadio: possibly used before declaration.

Case $msg = $PCRadio

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^

Case $msg = $HMRadio

The challenge, such as it was, interested me, so I whipped this up. It's from scratch, I didn't use your example, but it might give you something to work from.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

$gui_Select = GUICreate('Select', 110, 120)
$ra_One = GUICtrlCreateRadio('GUI One', 5, 5, 100, 20)
$ra_Two = GUICtrlCreateRadio('GUI Two', 5, 25, 100, 20)
$ra_Three = GUICtrlCreateRadio('GUI Three', 5, 45, 100, 20)

$bt_Go = GUICtrlCreateButton('Go', 5, 90, 100, 25)

$gui_Three = GUICreate('Three', 300, 100)

$hSelectGUI = _Select()
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hSelectGUI)

While 1
    $gm = GUIGetMsg(1) ; We're going to use advanced mode to keep track of the separate GUI's
    Switch $gm[0]
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            GUISetState(@SW_HIDE, $gm[1]) ; $gm[1] is a handle to the window that caused the event
            $hSelectGUI = _Select()
            GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hSelectGUI)
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func _Select()
    Local $hSelect
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $gui_Select)
    While 1
        $gm = GUIGetMsg()
        Switch $gm
            Case $ra_One
                $hSelect = $gui_One
            Case $ra_Two
                $hSelect = $gui_Two
            Case $ra_Three
                $hSelect = $gui_Three
            Case $ra_Four
                $hSelect = $gui_Four
            Case $bt_Go
                If $hSelect Then ExitLoop
            Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                Exit
        EndSwitch
    WEnd
    GUISetState(@SW_HIDE, $gui_Select)
    Return $hSelect
EndFunc

*Edit: Oops, small tweak.
