I am very new to this language and im already addicted. I am trying to create a program and whenever I try and run it, the gui doesn't appear. It only shows up in the system tray. Plz can anyone answer my dumb newbie question. How do I get this window to appear so I can actually see my GUI.

Thanks in advance.

Webber

Here is the code

#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>

#include <AVIConstants.au3>

#include <TreeViewConstants.au3>

#include <colorchecks.au3>

#include <settings.au3>

#include <ftpclient.au3>

#include <frmSchedule.au3>

#include <frmAddSchedule.au3>

Secondly, have a look at Example2() in the help file, notice the parent is specified and the placement of GUISetState(@SW_SHOW).

Thirdly, I could not compile as it would appear you custom UDFs. While nothing is wrong with that, I suggest you look at #include in the help again. ("" no <>)

Post your code because code says more then your words can. SciTe Debug mode - it's magic: #AutoIt3Wrapper_run_debug_mode=Y.

Sorry about the lingo. The Example2 in the help file under GUICreate. Did you write the script?

Where do these come from?

#include <colorchecks.au3>

#include <settings.au3>

#include <ftpclient.au3>

#include <windows.au3>

#include <frmSchedule.au3>

#include <frmAddSchedule.au3>

#include <settings.au3>

#include <ftpclient.au3>

#include <windows.au3>

#include <frmSchedule.au3>

#include <frmAddSchedule.au3>

those are other au3 files i plan on using with this form

but are not important right now.

except I want to have the StartBtn variable open up the frmAddSchedule form when clicked.

is there an easy way to do this and keep both windows up or not.

Understand that "GUICreate("FTP SnG Auto-Pilot", 425, 605)" creates like a panel object that you then can put other GUI items on. You have created a bunch of GUI items but have not told AutoIt what to do with them. GUI items like buttons or labels require a high level container to sit in like a panel. If you are new at this I recommend you have a look at some simple examples or tutorials so you can get a better understanding of the code you have posted.
