Closing a gui with same variable name

[gianfun]

Hey people!! How you all doing??

Ive looked around, but didnt find an answer to my "horrible" dilemma (is that written corectly??)

I have this gui with a button (WOW!!), and the button creates another gui and shows it. If i click the "close" button (the X on the top) in this secondary gui, I want it to close only the secondary gui, therefore, It calls a function that makes

"guidelete($gui2)"

however, if before closing the second gui. i press the button on the first gui again, it creates another gui, with the same Variable name ($gui2). now, if i press the xlose button, in either of the $gui2's, it will close the last one created. The problem is that i now cannot close the first one created. help plz.

umh, your code is closing all windows. It's just like the bye function.

I have a question for this, I want my 2nd gui to have 2 buttons (a close and a cancel) but the buttons are unresponsive. I have a feeling its something small I'm missing, I just can't figure it out.

umh, your code is closing all windows. It's just like the bye function.

Umm No, it's closing the original first window with the "Big Button!!" if there are no newly created windows left.

eg: Run script, hit the "Big Button!!" 5 times, now close 4 of the new windows. Is there not 2 windows left?

Close the last new window, and both the original window and last new window close.

It's sorta hard to know what you want by your description

Ok, new problem.

How do i make it so that, when all gui's are deleted, the program ends. Is there a way to do that?

Going bye that description, the only GUI windows that are being deleted in your code are the newly created windows by the "Big Button!!" that are closed.

More clarity in your case would yield better results in help.
