Returning Control Back to Parent Window


Recommended Posts

I've been working on a movie inventory script that is giving me some trouble. After clicking the "Add Movie" button a child window appears and allows you to enter movie information. However, after closing the "Add Movie" child window and returning back to the main screen all functionality is lost on the parent window. My full code is below, its my first script so any advice is welcome! ;)

#include <SQLite.dll.au3>

Try replacing your while with this.
