Hello everyone i have created a gui which has several controls like buttons,radio,checkboxes…etc In my gui I have added three functionalities like View settings,Restore Previous settings and Reset previous settings.

View Settings:-Opens a .ini file where it gives the information to the user about which controls are selected for e.g if radio is check then in the .ini file it writes 1 in front of that radio name.

Restore Previous Settings:-When the user opens the gui and if he presses this button then the previous done settings will be uploaded and the control will get selected.
Basically it reads from the .ini file and uploads the control.
IniRead,output,%A_ScriptDir%\Configuration.ini,Main,Offline test
Guicontrolget,Offline
guicontrol,,Offline,%output%

Reset:-It will write 0 in front of all control names in the .ini file and will upload the gui with default settings(all controls 0)
IniWrite,0,%A_ScriptDir%\Configuration.ini,Main,Offline test
Send !{R} ;;;;;;clicks the button Restore Previous Settings

Uptil now everything works fine but now when I added a button "Open"on a gui which opens a new small gui 2 window which also have some controls. When I click any one control on it then it writes 1 in the .ini file but the moment when I click restore or reset it works fine on the gui 1 but not on the newly created gui 2 that is the small one it never reset or restore but it write 0 in the .ini file correctly then why its not uploading this new setting on the new gui?????

Please help me out….your help is always appreciated ...below is my .ini file


here is a part of my code

in short is it possible to send controls to gui2 from gui1....like if i press a button on gui1 it should send the control on gui2 which is not on the screen????

4th EDIT: examples with 2 GUI and a menu, menu can start with shortcut V C D W (when opened)

thanks but i didnt meant that...as you can see in my above example i have two gui's 1 & 2 of which gui1 is the main gui and i have a button called restore on it. what i want is when i click Restore on gui1 then it should produce a change on gui2 which is not opened
for example change like text in the edit field of gui1 should appear in the text field of gui2 when i click the button which is present on gui1

Did you try what garry said, specify the GUI in your example you don't

Thank GOD....thanks man you really saved me i was working from morning and when i came to this problem i started to scratch my head a lot as i was not in a condition to take out bugs but thanks a million man...HATS OFF garry

well how about clicking gui2 button from gui1 button??? with guicontrol we can check,uncheck,enable,disable...but how about clicking a button???
what i tried to do is

your help is always appreciated

added script above a menu (when opened shortcuts with V C D W, and hotkey !s )
you can use the same gLabel in the new Gui which already exists (example gVOL )

well thanks garry but in my case VOL of first gui and VOL of second gui perform different task. What i want is VOL button of gui1 performs several tasks and one of its task is of VOL from gui2. For example :-VOL button of gui 2 has run notepad.exe command and VOL is defined with a hotkey !V. VOL button of gui has several run condition and the order is suppose

but it works when i try to call the functions....
