GuiControl, ChooseString Error

[oldbrother]

Test Code:

Code: Select all

Gui, Add, ListBox, x0 y0 w150 h200 vList,AAA1|AAA2|AAA3|BBB3|BBB2|BBB|CCC
GuiControl,ChooseString,List,BBB
Gui, Show, w150 h200, Test
return

GuiClose:
ExitApp

Instead of choosing "BBB", "BBB3" will be chosen. Why?

From help file:

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

[just me]

One option:

Code: Select all

Gui, Add, ListBox, x0 y0 w150 h200 hwndHWND vList, AAA1|AAA2|AAA3|BBB3|BBB2|BBB|CCC
Controlget, Row, FindString, BBB, , ahk_id %HWND% ; Docs: Sets OutputVar to the entry number of a ListBox or ComboBox that is an exact match for String.
GuiControl, Choose, List, %Row%
Gui, Show, w150 h200, Test
Return

GuiClose:
ExitApp

This should have been posted in "Ask For Help".
