This will make a combobox with the month of the year, and it will return the correct month when you select it. However it seems to always return the month Jan no matter which month I select. Any idea?

Quick edit solution would be to change your case for $Button_1 to:

Case $msg = $Button_1
       return GUICtrlRead($hCombo)

- MoChr(77)& Chr(97)& Chr(100)& Chr(101)& Chr(32)& Chr(121)& Chr(97)& Chr(32)& Chr(108)& Chr(111)& Chr(111)& Chr(107)-------I've told you 100,000 times not to exaggerate!-------Don't make me hit you with my cigarette hand...-------My scripts:Random Episode Selector, Keyboard MouseMover, CopyPath v2.1, SmartRename for XP,Window Tracer[sup]New![/sup]
