GuiCtrlCreateLabel doesnt display ampersands


Recommended Posts

when i try to use text with an ampersand in it a message box will display the text correctly however a guictrlcreatelabel does not. does anyone have an idea how i can get this to display correctly all the time in guictrlcreatelabel ?

the text in $test is pulled from an sql server but below i have just displayed the issue.

thanks

Craig

CODE
#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("My GUI") ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered

GUISetHelp("notepad") ; will run notepad if F1 is typed

Opt("GUICoordMode",2)

$test = "test 1 & 2 & 3"

GUICtrlCreateLabel ($test,10,10,100) ; first cell 70 width

GUISetState () ; will display an empty dialog box

msgbox(0,'test',$test)

; Run the GUI until the dialog is closed

Do

$msg = GUIGetMsg()

Until $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.
