Inputbox read/write?

[zakoz]

hello

i've come with a question - is it possible to use inputbox as outputbox as well? basicly i want my script to read from a variable and then return it in a inputbox and if i want to, change the text returned and save it back to variable.

basicly i want GUI to look like this: an inputbox and checkbox, if checkbox is ticked then inputbox will become visible with in/out operations - read from a variable and if changed by user - save to a variable.

i have also problem with hide/show, it work only once, i mean if tick/untick checkbox for the first time, inputbox will appear and disappear but then it will stay either visible or unvisible (depends if inputbox was visible from the start or not)

Case $msg = $merch
If BitAnd(GUICtrlRead($merch),$GUI_CHECKED) Then

$Input1 = GUICtrlSetState($input1, $GUI_SHOW)

If BitAnd(GUICtrlRead($merch),$GUI_UNCHECKED) Then

$Input1 = GUICtrlSetState($input1, $GUI_HIDE)

I think it is this:

$Input1 = GUICtrlSetState($input1, $GUI_SHOW)

remove the red part at each GUICtrlSetState, if this does not solve the problem post the whole script

If it is data (a string or number) you want to input use GUICtrlSetData($Handle,$Data)

You have actually tried this?

Case $msg = $merch
    If BitAnd(GUICtrlRead($merch),$GUI_CHECKED) Then
        GUICtrlSetState($input1, $GUI_SHOW)
    ElseIf BitAnd(GUICtrlRead($merch),$GUI_UNCHECKED) Then
        GUICtrlSetState($input1, $GUI_HIDE)
    EndIf

If it is data (a string or number) you want to input use GUICtrlSetData($Handle,$Data)

bingo! thank you very much

my first problem with inputbox got fixed as well, just after i added tabs, hiding/showing input started to work properly.
