I'm trying to get a main window, and then a second window that works independently of the other. You open the secondary window by choosing Add menuItem from the Schedule menu. I cannot set it up correctly though.

Thats awesome. Thanks for the help!

One more question though, are you not able to hide the main GUI when the [X] is hit instead of Exiting? Since it runs schedules I want to be able to hide the window and pull it back up from the tray.

Thanks!

Welcome!

sure, just replace the "Exit" with WinSetState("WINDOW NAME","",@SW_HIDE)

I thought so....

I figured it out. Sometimes it would hide/show the Schedule Manager window since AutoIt starts at the beginning of the name on title matching. I changed it to "Schedule Manager - xCell Pusher" and that fixed everything.

Thanks again!

The main window responds correctly but the secondary one does not for some reason. I tried adding 

GUISwitch
in the Cases where the two windows swap, but that didn't help.
