Code:

I am modifying the incremental task handler to be able to close applications aswell. The behaviour I want is

1. Goto to an entry in the listbox.
2. Press Delete.

This should close the application and move the entries below the closed entry up one level so that the same position in the listbox is stil selected. My code above does exactly this except if I try to close the last application entry in the list. When I try to close the the last application entry the first entry is selected again. This is ofcourse because i removed the last entry and then try to set the current position of the list to the unexisting entry. So My question is: Is there a way to find out if an in an listbox is the last entry (so that I can handle that separatly).

to be able to go to an entry in the list and press delete. This

Beeing lazy, I'd just check if the string removed was at the end.
If so, the left part of the string stays the same.
Like this

Code:

;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; Closes selected window
;
CloseWindow:
guicontrolget, listval,,index
msgbox, %listval%
x_listval := listval
stringtrimleft, window_id, idarray%listval%, 0
WinClose, ahk_id %window_id%
GoSub, RefreshWindowList

if (listval = substr(x_listval,1,StrLen(listval)))
{
msgbox, You deleted the last entry. (Put your code in here!)
}
GuiControl, Choose, ListBox1, %listval%
return
