Case Process

[anixon]

This is some code which I have written [an example is support of the question - does not run]:

CODE

While 1

GUICreate($Title, 335, 310, -1, -1)

GUISetBkColor(0xE0FFFF)

GUISetState()

;//User Information

GUISetFont(10, 600, 1, $Font)

GUICtrlCreateGroup(" sSentry Address Book ", 10, 10, 315, 250)

GUISetFont(9, 400, 1, $Font)

;//Skype Name

If $NameToMatch = "" Then $NameToMatch = "Input Skype Name"

GUICtrlCreateLabel("Skype Name:", 25, 37, 100, 25)

$SkypeName = GUICtrlCreateInput($NameToMatch, 125, 35, 165, 20)

GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_FOCUS + $GUI_DROPACCEPTED)

GUICtrlSetLimit(-1, 30)

GUICtrlSetTip(-1, "This is the Callers Skype Name", "Help", 1)

$sSSearch = GUICtrlCreateButton("Search", 10, 270, 75, 25)

GUICtrlSetTip(-1, "Search for the Callers Record", "Help", 1)

;//Exit the Application

$sSExit = GUICtrlCreateButton("Close", 250, 270, 75, 25)

While 1

$msg = GUIGetMsg()

Select

;//Exit the Application

Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Or $msg = $sSExit

GUIDelete()

Exit

;//Record Search

Case $msg = $sSSearch

GUIDelete()

;Run a Process

ExitLoop

EndSelect

WEnd

WEnd

What is the event command that I can use with the Case $msg = $sSSearch Or ????????????? Statement than will run this process when Input is completed at the $SkypeName Input Box and Enter is Pressed or alternatively the Search button is pressed?. Ant..

Your code is a little bit messy this time

... kidding ...

Try this:

expandcollapse popup

GUICreate($Title, 335, 310, -1, -1)
GUISetBkColor(0xE0FFFF)
GUISetState() 
;//User Information
GUISetFont(10, 600, 1, $Font)
GUICtrlCreateGroup(" sSentry Address Book ", 10, 10, 315, 250)
GUISetFont(9, 400, 1, $Font)
;//Skype Name
If $NameToMatch = "" Then $NameToMatch = "Input Skype Name"
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Skype Name:", 25, 37, 100, 25)
$SkypeName = GUICtrlCreateInput($NameToMatch, 125, 35, 165, 20)
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_FOCUS + $GUI_DROPACCEPTED)
GUICtrlSetLimit(-1, 30)
GUICtrlSetTip(-1, "This is the Callers Skype Name", "Help", 1)
$sSSearch = GUICtrlCreateButton("Search", 10, 270, 75, 25)
GUICtrlSetTip(-1, "Search for the Callers Record", "Help", 1)
;//Exit the Application
$sSExit = GUICtrlCreateButton("Close", 250, 270, 75, 25)
While 1 
    $msg = GUIGetMsg() 
    Select
;//Exit the Application
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Or $msg = $sSExit
            Exit 
;//Record Search
        Case $msg = $sSSearch   ;when Search is pressed
            If GUICtrlRead($SkypeName) <> "" Then
                GUIDelete()
                ;Run a Process
            EndIf
        Case $msg = $SkypeName  ;when the inputbox content is modified
            If GUICtrlRead($SkypeName) <> "" Then
                GUIDelete()
                ;Run a Process
            EndIf
    EndSelect
WEnd

You don't need the first While; I guess you don't want this to run endlessly.

Hi enaiman its been a while good to hear from you. How's Hobart Town cold enough for you today what was it 10c probably snowed on Mt Wellington better you than me...... ha ha

If you didn't know it it takes an extraordinary effort to write messy code [hours and hours no less] and I have got plenty of practice. In fact I am trying to refine it into an Art form.

Then you come along with a solution which I simply did not see I just hate it when I cannot see the woods for the trees makes me feel code deficient.

Once again I thank you for your prompt and informative response Cheers....... Ant..
