i took the mmps button and modified it a bit for a script im making but i want to make a function out of it so that i dont have to write the whole code for every button i make.

this is what i did :

ButVar = the variable of the control to show/hide
SubR = the subroutine to go when the button is pressed

Code:

ButtonEffect( ButVar, SubR) {
  GuiControl Hide, %ButVar%
  Loop {
    MouseDown := GetKeyState("LButton","P")
    If (!MouseDown) {
       Click = 1
       Break
    }
  }
  GuiControl Show, %ButVar%
  IfEqual Click, 1, GoSub, %SubR%
}


it works ok when i put the whole code in.but not as a function.
it always says that there was a problem with launching SubR
what am i doing wrong?

Try it like this:
Code:
ButtonEffect(ButVar,SubR) ; Spaces taken out here and open bracket moved to next line.
 {
  GuiControl Hide, %ButVar%
  Loop {
    MouseDown := GetKeyState("LButton","P")
    If (!MouseDown) {
       Click = 1
       Break
    }
  }
  GuiControl Show, %ButVar%
  IfEqual Click, 1, GoSub, %SubR%
}

I don't know the rest of your code so I don't know what else might be going on. I did try on one of my own scripts and was able to gosub an outside sub {also, the changes I made in yours above didn't make any difference, but, personally, I just think it looks better this way Confused }.

Make sure that if you are using actual text to call your function that you put that in quotes:
ButtonEffect(btnGo,"MySub")
btnGo would be a variable and MySub would be the actual name of a sub-routine. Hope this helps!

Ciao,
