i know this is simple but i'm stumped..still learning all of this...

i want to have multiple buttons within one GUI/scripts...i can't seem to get the second button identified apart from the first....I tried button2, 2button...but i think i'm missing something

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gui, Add, Text, y+35, test
Gui, Add, text, x60 y80 w100 h37, Enter 7 digit Number To Display Customer General Data:
Gui, Add, Edit, vVar number limit7
Gui, add, Button, default,OK
Gui, Add, button, x250 y120 w100 h37, Click OK to View List of Contracts:
Gui, add, Button, default,OK ;SECOND BUTTON
Gui, Show, x285 y151 h377 w477, test
Return

ButtonOK: ;HELP ME OUT HERE

send, va45
sleep, 500
send, {enter}
Return

Buttonok: ; THIS WORKS FINE
GuiControlGet, Var
Gui, submit


Send, %var%
Send, {enter}

Use g-labels instead.

Hmmm,

I don't understand your problem very well. But maybe you should check the Gui documentation - especially "g-Labels" This can come in quite helpful.

You'll find the explanation under "Options for Assigning Actions and Variables to Controls"

Gui, Add, Text, y+35, test

I believe you have to give each button a unique name, as long as they are on the same GUI.
And looks like you have 2 "OK" buttons on the same GUI.
If you rename 2nd button as "SUBMIT" or "DONE" that will fix your problem.

It was a little hard for me understanding what your code should do.

I assume you want to enter the user a 7-digit-number, then
send the keys "va45", wait a little, send Enter, send 7-digit-number,
send Return.
Is this right?
