Question about AutoHotkey assignment 2
« on: June 13, 2011, 08:18 PM »
A while ago I have started work on AutoHotkey assignment two. Due to work and other interruptions I wasn't able to finish the task.

Now I've taken a look at it again and I can see that I was stuck at the problem that is described in the assignment as "a place to specify a file".

The way I understand it, I have to be able to select from the settings menu a specific file the path of which is shown in the menu. I suppose there should be some kind of "Browse" button.

I can't seem to figure out how to store the path in the text box.

Could someone please point me to the correct AutoHotkey commands? Please?

I thought about posting the problem to the AutoHotkey forum, but I don't know if that would be considered cheating. I'm just so damned honest!

Thanks,
TTP

i don't know the answer to your question about how to do it, but i can say it wouldn't be cheating to ask this question on the ahk forum.
