Hi,

I want to know how to make a program flow such that, after a GUI, Destroy is done, the program can continue processing.

For the sake of discussion, let us say that I have three parts of the script, Part1, Part2 and Part3. Part1 runs without an interface. In Part2, a GUI is created to interact with the user. The GUI has three buttons with a Go-sub for each. Go-subs normally end with a Return or ExitApp statement. After Part2 completes, the GUI is destroyed (each Go-sub has a destroy statement), and the script continues into Part3.

To get to Part3, the only thing that I can think of is to use several Goto, Part3 statements, but it disturbs me to ignore using a Return statement when one is required. Is there some other way to do this?



Code:
Part1:
/*
Do some stuff here that does not require user interaction.
*/
Sleep, 1000

Part2:
; Create a GUI with three buttons.
Gui, Add, Text, x16 y17 w380 h20, Blah blah blah   
Gui, Add, Button, x16 y47 w110 h30 gCreateCert, Create
Gui, Add, Button, x156 y47 w110 h30 gCopyCert, Copy
Gui, Add, Button, x296 y47 w100 h30 gCancel, Do later
Gui, Show, x386 y319 h97 w417, My GUI title
Return

GuiClose:
Cancel:
Gui, Destroy
; Goto, Part3

CreateCert:
Gui, Destroy
; Create heaven and earth.
; Goto, Part3

CopyCert:
Gui, Destroy
; Do some copying
; Goto, Part3

Part3:
; Continue with other business.
; Rest on the seventh day if necessary.
ExitApp

GuiClose:
Cancel:
Gui, Destroy
Gosub, Part3
Return

CreateCert:
Gui, Destroy
Gosub, Part3
Return

CopyCert:
Gui, Destroy
Gosub, Part3
Return

Part3:
; Continue with other business.
; Rest on the seventh day if necessary.
ExitApp


Either Got or Gosub is fine, since the ExitApp at the end of Part three kills all anyway.

Another approach:
Code:
Part1:
/*
Do some stuff here that does not require user interaction.
*/
Sleep, 1000

Part2:
; Create a GUI with three buttons.
Gui, Add, Text, x16 y17 w380 h20, Blah blah blah   
Gui, Add, Button, x16 y47 w110 h30 gCreateCert, Create
Gui, Add, Button, x156 y47 w110 h30 gCopyCert, Copy
Gui, Add, Button, x296 y47 w100 h30 gCancel, Do later
Gui, Show, x386 y319 h97 w417, My GUI title
Gui, +LastFound
WinWaitClose

Part3:
; Continue with other business.
; Rest on the seventh day if necessary.
ExitApp

; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Gui Subs
GuiClose:
Cancel:
Gui, Destroy
Return

CreateCert:
Gui, Destroy
Return

CopyCert:
Gui, Destroy
Return
