astrax,

I hope this does what you want:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

_Clear_Input()

Func _Clear_Input()

    $hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)
    
    $hInput_1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("Input_1 ", 10, 10, 200, 20)
    $hInput_2 = GUICtrlCreateInput("Input_2 ", 10, 80, 200, 20)
    
    GUISetState()

    While 1
        
        Switch GUIGetMsg()
            Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                Exit
        EndSwitch
        
        $aInfo = GUIGetCursorInfo($hGUI)
        If $aInfo[2] Then
            If $aInfo[4] = $hInput_1 Then GUICtrlSetData($hInput_1, "")
            If $aInfo[4] = $hInput_2 Then GUICtrlSetData($hInput_2, "")
        EndIf
        
    WEnd

EndFunc;==>_Clear_Input

I know this is old however a better way would be                       

GUICtrlSetState($Input1, $GUI_FOCUS)
                         GUICtrlSetData($Input1, "") ;Reset input

antonioj84,

And how is that a better solution? If the user clicks on $hInput_2 how will your code clear it? The idea is to clear the input in which the user clicks - not just a specific one.

Case $Start

            ElseIf  StringLeft($checknum, 1) <> 9  And BitAND(GUICtrlRead($idCheckbox), $GUI_CHECKED) And GUICtrlRead($Radio2) = $GUI_UNCHECKED    Then ; check for training RIAB in position 2 check value  store number if  not start with 9
            MsgBox(0, "error", "Training RIAB MUST START WITH 9")
            GUICtrlSetState($Input1, $GUI_FOCUS)

            ElseIf  StringLeft($checknum, 1) = 9  And BitAND(GUICtrlRead($idCheckbox), $GUI_CHECKED) or BitAND(GUICtrlRead($idCheckbox), $GUI_UNCHECKED) And GUICtrlRead($Radio2) = $GUI_CHECKED    Then
            MsgBox(0,"Warning"," tablet store number don't start with a 9")
            GUICtrlSetState($Input1, $GUI_FOCUS)
            GUICtrlSetData($Input1, "") ;Reset input
                

            ElseIf  StringLeft($checknum, 1) = 9  And BitAND(GUICtrlRead($idCheckbox), $GUI_UNCHECKED) And GUICtrlRead($Radio1) = $GUI_CHECKED    Then
            MsgBox(0,"Warning"," Live store number don't start with a 9")
            GUICtrlSetState($Input1, $GUI_FOCUS)
            GUICtrlSetData($Input1, "") ;Reset input

here is a little snippet from my code that work for me, other option  ;~ GUICtrlSetState($Input3, $GUI_ENABLE) , ;~ GUICtrlSetState($Input3, $GUI_DISABLE)
