display info and then update it

[AJ6594]

I need 4 GUI's on my desktop and I want them to display a number (obtained from a string in a different func)....

then update when the number changes.

Here is what I have, but I am sure this is poorly coded....

$1 = GUICreate("1", 150, 50, 42, 1100,$WS_POPUP,$WS_EX_TOPMOST)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) ; display the GUI

GUICtrlCreateLabel($number1, 0, 0)

$2 = GUICreate("2", 150, 50, 842, 1100,$WS_POPUP,$WS_EX_TOPMOST)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) ; display the GUI

GUICtrlCreateLabel($number2, 0, 0)

$3 = GUICreate("3", 150, 50, 1642, 1100,$WS_POPUP,$WS_EX_TOPMOST)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) ; display the GUI

GUICtrlCreateLabel($number3, 0, 0)

$4 = GUICreate("4", 150, 50, 2442, 1100,$WS_POPUP,$WS_EX_TOPMOST)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) ; display the GUI

GUICtrlCreateLabel($number4, 0, 0)

While 1

; number1 - 4 are globals

; current_number() returns the current number

If $number1 <> current_number1() Then

$number1 = current_number1()

GUISwitch($1)

GUICtrlCreateLabel($number1, 30, 30) ; this is how I update the GUI

EndIf

If $number2 <>current_ number2() Then

$number2 = current_number2()

GUISwitch($2)

GUICtrlCreateLabel($number2, 30, 30)

EndIf

If $number3 <> current_number3() Then

$number3 = current_number3()

GUISwitch($3)

GUICtrlCreateLabel($number3, 30, 30)

EndIf

If $number4 <> current_number4() Then

$number4 = current_number4()

GUISwitch($4)

GUICtrlCreateLabel($number4, 30, 30)

EndIf

WEnd

Sometimes the number fails to update in one or more GUI's.

Suggestions welcome.
