trouble with making the buttons do something

[arminius]

here is this script I'm working on, it's supposed to run in the background, but when a msgbox pops up and I click on the ok button, I want the clicking of that ok to end the script

here is the coding

CODE

While 1

; test

If @MON=04 And @MDAY=17 And @HOUR=06 And @MIN=27 And @Sec=35 Then MsgBox(262144, "Reminder", "This popup is working", 1)

Sleep(400)

WEnd

I have tried everything I can think of, adding a second then after the msg saying then exit doesn't work, have also tried some other things, so if anyone can help I will be grateful

Use the Exit or ExitLoop keyword or do some checking at beginning of the while loop

; Example 1
While 1
; test
If @MON=04 And @MDAY=17 And @HOUR=06 And @MIN=27 And @Sec=35 Then
MsgBox(262144, "Reminder", "This popup is working", 1)
Exit
EndIf
Sleep(400)

Just for giggles, you can make that conditional on which button gets clicked by checking the numeric return value from MsgBox():

While 1
    If @MON = 04 And @MDAY = 17 And @HOUR = 06 And @MIN = 27 And @SEC = 35 Then
        If MsgBox(32 + 4, Default, "Do you want to exit?") = 6 Then Exit
    EndIf
    Sleep(400)
WEnd

That's cool, I had never seen the keyword Default used... Could be useful sometime...
