Close MsgBox on texteditor

[Bru]

Hello,

This is just a quick question that i cannot seem to work out. For some odd reason lol.

Well..

I am creating a text editor. Only simple atm.

When i close my texteditor, i would like a messagebox to be shown with a question asking if they are sure they want to exit.

well i kno how to create the message box. Lol.

All i am asking is, how would i get the pressed value, or w.ee it is.

So for example i have this.

$Msgbox = MsgBox(3, "Close..?", "Are you sure you wish to close? Have you saved all work")
            If $Msgbox = 1 Then
                GUIDelete()
                Exit
            Else 
            
            EndIf

This obviously isn't correct as it does not work.

Any help. Thanks

Bru,

Look at the Help file for MsgBox. There is a big table headed "Button Pressed | Return Value"

I know, i have looked at that, That is not my point.

What i do not get is.. how i get the value. So how do i do something with it?

Sorry if confusing you.

Thanks

Bru,

In your script above, the variable $Msgbox is set to the return value. You have used Flag = 3 in your MsgBox to get Yes, No, and Cancel as buttons. So you can expect to get a return value of 6, 7 or 2. All you have to do is put the correct value for the required return in your If line.

Oh yes, sugar.

I was looking at the Cancel return value.

Thank you.

Solved.
