What are you trying to do? Click a button and make it do something? I don't understand...

Yea thats what im trying to do

First you need to learn GUI Concepts, like the difference between OnEvent and Message modes. When you created a GUI with Koda there was a way to select which type of GUI you want to use. It will even create a function for each action on a control. If you made a button Koda can create a function to run if the button is pressed. If you made a checkbox there should be a function to run when it gets checked or unchecked... I know for sure it does this in OnEvent mode if you tell it to...

Is there a "Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)" at the top of the code? If it's there and it's a 1 that means you're using OnEvent Mode.

Edit: How to put your GUI into OnEvent mode...

Go to Tools --> Generating Options or Ctrl+F9

Check "Generate OnEvent Code" and "Generate Events for all Controls"

Do that and you'll see what I mean. If you want to see a working example the help file has an OnEvent GUI example. Here's one...

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)  ; Change to OnEvent mode 
$mainwindow = GUICreate("Hello World", 200, 100)
GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "CLOSEClicked")
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Hello world! How are you?", 30, 10)
$okbutton = GUICtrlCreateButton("OK", 70, 50, 60)
GUICtrlSetOnEvent($okbutton, "OKButton")
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
  Sleep(1000)  ; Idle around
WEnd

Func OKButton()
  ;Note: at this point @GUI_CTRLID would equal $okbutton,
  ;and @GUI_WINHANDLE would equal $mainwindow
  MsgBox(0, "GUI Event", "You pressed OK!")
EndFunc

Func CLOSEClicked()
  ;Note: at this point @GUI_CTRLID would equal $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, 
  ;and @GUI_WINHANDLE would equal $mainwindow 
  MsgBox(0, "GUI Event", "You clicked CLOSE! Exiting...")
  Exit
EndFunc
