Coordinates of input box

[brizzonator]

Hi all,

is there a way to control the desktop coordinates that an input box opens at?

The reason I need this is I have a app that I am working on, and it repeatedly closes the input box and reopens it, when it reopens however it jumps back to the upper left corner of the desktop, and I want it to either open centered, or (preferably) open where it was closed at.

Might be a autoit n00b question, but that's what I am, so cogito ergo sum, heheh.

Thanks,

Brizz

What do you think the "left" and "top" parameters does?

InputBox ( "title", "Prompt" [, "Default" [, "password char" [, width, height [, left, top [, timeOut [, hwnd]]]]]] )

You really should look in the helpfile before asking such easy questions on the forum.

Sorry, you are right. I actually did look at the help file, but thought that the positional fields were for the input field within the window, not the window itself. I smack my forehead with shovel, thanks for the help.
