[zeroZshadow]

why doesn't my script works??

i added the file needed to this post

Dim $buffer[5000]
$line = 1
$timer = TimerInit()
While 1
 $buffer[$line] = FileReadLine ("menu2.txt",$line)
If @error = -1 then 
    $dif = TimerDiff($timer)
    $time = Round($dif,-1)
    MsgBox(0,"Done","Line nr."&$line&" has been reached in "&$time&" milliseconds")
    ExitLoop
EndIf
$line = $line+1
Wend
Dim $buffer2[$line]
for $line2=1 to $line
    $Buffer2[$line2] = StringSplit($buffer[$line2],";" )
    MsgBox(4096, "Test",$Buffer2[$line2][1])
Next

thanks for help

This has been discussed before.

When you declare an array, you specify the number of elements you're going to use.

Example

Dim $Arr[5]

is

For $i = 0 To 4

$Arr[$i] = "your value"

Next

You don't believe me?

count yourself: 0 1 2 3 4

[zeroZshadow]

????????? could you update that part of the code, because i really don't get what ur saying this way.

sorry

[SlimShady]

It's ok.

Your script is incomplete and totally not working.

I updated your script.

    $Buffer2[$lines2] = StringSplit($Line, ";" )
   ;MsgBox(4096, "Test",$Buffer2[$lines2][1])    ;<--- This will not work!

is gives an error...

[SlimShady]

Yeah I was just rechecking the code.

Hold on...

again an error:

C:\Documents and Settings\zeroZshadow\Mijn documenten\autoitscripts\jaap\slimsscript.au3 (9) : ==> Variable used without being declared.:

$LineArr = StringSplit($buffer[$line2], ";")

$LineArr = StringSplit($buffer[^ ERROR

[zcoacoaz]

$line2 isnt declared.

[zeroZshadow]

again an error:

$LineArr = StringSplit($buffer[$line2], ";")

$LineArr = StringSplit($buffer[^ ERROR

>Exit code: 0    Time: 0.981

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

$line2 isnt declared. 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

that what the error said.

you don't have to spam that again.

[zeroZshadow]

anyway...i made it work.

but now the msgboxes gives a number everytime!! instead of the string

[SlimShady]

What string?

What do you expect to see?

[zeroZshadow]

if you look in the menu2.txt you will see allot of lines.

the first part will put every line in a array

($buffer[1] till $buffer[allot])

then stringspliw has to plit EVERY array again to get every word separated by the ";" so i'll get

($buffer[1][1]/$buffer[1][2]/$buffer[1][3])

($buffer[2][1]/$buffer[2][1]/$buffer[3][1])

and so on.....

so i can put them in a list and then convert it to a tree.
