Dim $txt=GUICtrlCreateEdit("Enter text here... Wait 5 seconds..",0,0,500,400)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

enterText()

While 1
$msg=GUIGetMsg()
If $msg=$GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
WEnd

Func enterText()
Sleep(5000)
GuiCtrlSetData($txt,"Text has been entered.")
EndFunc

? Is this what you're trying to do?

$hWnd = GuiCreate("")
$hEdit1 = GuiCtrlCreateEdit("",5,5,395,20)
$hEdit2 = GuiCtrlCreateEdit("",5,40,395,20)
$hButton1 = GuiCtrlCreateButton(" Copy ",5,70)
$hButton2 = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Paste in Window",50,70)

GuiSetState()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    
    Switch $msg
        Case -3
            Exit
        Case $hButton1
            ClipPut(GuiCtrlRead($hEdit1))
        Case $hButton2
            WinActivate(GUICtrlRead($hEdit2))
            Send("^v{ENTER}")
    EndSwitch
WEnd
