I've been playing with this listview script:
http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/post-44471.html#44471

It seems to be working great apart from I've change the gui to include a drop downlist.

How do I get the dropdown list to show the entry I have selected in the list view??

ie:
Code:
SMGUI:
  Gui,2:Add,Text, xm Section w80, NAME
  Gui,2:Add,Edit, ys-4 w420  vA41, %A31%
  Gui,2:Add,Text, xm Section w80  , EMAIL
  Gui,2:Add,Edit, ys-4 w420  vA42, %A32%
  Gui,2:Add,Text, xm Section w80  , WWW
  Gui,2:Add,Edit, ys-4 w420  vA43, %A33%
  Gui,2:Add,Text, xm Section w80  , COLOR
  Gui,2:Add, DropDownList, ys-4 vA44, |aqua|black|blue|fuchsia|gray|green|lime|maroon|navy|olive|purple|red|silver|teal|white|yellow
  Gui,2:Add, Button, xm, OK
  Gui,2:Show, , NAME-INPUT
return


name shows the name from the listview, email shows the email from the list view.. BUT how do I get COLOR to show the color from the list view ???

Thanks Smile

I'd use GuiControl, ChooseString

There's this in the Documentation
Quote:
GuiControl, ChooseString, ControlID, String: Sets the selection (choice) in a ListBox, DropDownList, ComboBox, or Tab control to be the entry whose leading part matches String. The search is not case sensitive. For example, if a the control contains the item "UNIX Text", specifying the word unix (lowercase) would be enough to select it. The pipe and double-pipe prefix are also supported (see "Choose" above for details).
