Only allow one msgbox to pop up?

[gigilihooie]

Is there a way to make it when you press a button acouple times, only one instance of a msgbox pops up? Like I have now, if you press the button three times, three msgbox's pop up. I have looked and could not find anything.

Is there a way to make it when you press a button acouple times, only one instance of a msgbox pops up? Like I have now, if you press the button three times, three msgbox's pop up. I have looked and could not find anything.

An example:

$GUI = GUICreate("EXAMPLE",200,200,50,50)
$BUTTON = GUICtrlCreateButton("MsgBox",50,50,100,100)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW,$GUI)

While 1
    $MSG = GUIGetMsg()
    If $MSG = -3 Then
        Exit
    ElseIf $MSG = $BUTTON And Not(WinExists("TEST")) Then
        MsgBox(0,"TEST","THIS IS A MESSAGE BOX")
    EndIf
    Sleep(20)
WEnd

I'll just use a modified version Of Andreiks code to give you another example. His is best if you want to prvent multiple message boxes but if you only want a message box to appear once and then not show up again this will do it.

;
$GUI = GUICreate("EXAMPLE",200,200,50,50)
$BUTTON = GUICtrlCreateButton("MsgBox",50,50,100,100)
$iDispMsg = 1
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW,$GUI)

While 1
    $MSG = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $Msg
        Case -3
           Exit
        Case $BUTTON
           If $iDispMsg Then MsgBox(0,"TEST","THIS IS A MESSAGE BOX")
           $iDispMsg = 0
    EndSwitch
WEnd
;

Heres my version

Global $Num = 0

$GUI = GUICreate("EXAMPLE", 100, 100, -1, -1)
$BUTTON = GUICtrlCreateButton("MSGBOX", 10, 10, 80, 80)

GUISetState()
While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
    Case $nMsg = -3
        Exit
    Case $nMsg = $BUTTON
        If $Num = 2 Then
            MsgBox(0, "", "Test")
            $Num = 0
        Else
            $Num += 1
        EndIf
    EndSelect
WEnd

Your example doesn't work

My 5 cents:

$GUI = GUICreate("EXAMPLE", 200, 200)
$BUTTON = GUICtrlCreateButton("MsgBox", 50, 50, 100, 100)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $GUI)

While 1
    $MSG = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $MSG
        Case - 3
            Exit
        Case $BUTTON
            MsgBox(0, "TEST", "THIS IS A MESSAGE BOX", 0, $GUI)
    EndSwitch
WEnd
