$var1 = $var2

I'm sure this is a simple fix and I feel really dumb for posting this <.< but after messing around with it for 20min I can't seem to get it to work.

GUICreate("Enter User & Pass",230,90)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Username:",15,5)
$User=GUICtrlCreateInput("",70,0,100,20)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Password:",16,35)
$Pass=GUICtrlCreateInput("",70,32,100,20)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Password:",16,65)
$Pass2=GUICtrlCreateInput("",70,62,100,20)
$DoneButton=GUICtrlCreateButton("Done",180,33)
GUISetState()

While 1
$msg = GUIGetMsg()
If $msg = -3 Then ExitLoop
If $msg = $DoneButton Then 
$Username=GUICtrlRead($User)
$Password=GUICtrlRead($Pass)
$Password2=GUICtrlRead($Pass2)

If Not $Password = $Password2 Then
MsgBox(0,"Mismatch","The passwords do not match")
EndIf
EndIf
Wend

for the some reason the above code won't work, if I take out the "Not" then the message box goes off. so $Password does = $Password2

Username: a

Password: b

Password: b

Try:

If Not ($Password == $Password2) Then

Thanks!

Understand the difference with your code and where yours went wrong?

Not really I've never seen the IF with ( ) in autoit and I tried == instead of = before but that didn't work ethier.

Its simple ones you understand:

This

If Not $Password = $Password2 Then

Is resolved from left to right... thus first step is to resolve "Not $Password"

This will resolve to False.

After that you compare "False = $password2"

so your statement is resolved like coding it as:

If (Not $Password) = $Password2 Then

The == just makes it compare Case-sensitive which is something you want for passwords.
