Edit ahk file from within GUI Topic is solved

[RyanAyton]

Hello all,

I have the following gui ahk that loads in the Abb.ahk into the GUI:

Code: Select all

FileRead,FileContents,C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\AutoHotkey\Macro List\Abb.ahk
Gui ReadAbb: Add, edit, w600 h350, %FileContents%, vFile
Gui ReadAbb: Show, w620 h400, Read Abbreviations
Gui ReadAbb: Add, Button, w60 x200 y365 gSaveAbb, Save
Gui ReadAbb: Add, Button, w60 x280 y365 gCnlAbb, Cancel
Return

SaveAbb:
Gui, ReadAbb: Submit
Clipboard = %File%
FileDelete, %A_MyDocuments%\AutoHotkey\Macro List\Abb.ahk
FileAppend, %Clipboard%, %A_MyDocuments%\AutoHotkey\Macro List\Abb.ahk
Gui, ReadAbb: Destroy
Return

CnlAbb:
Return

What I'm trying to do is for the Save option to save the changes made within to the Abb.ahk but it's not working.

Any ideas?

you should move vFile like so Gui ReadAbb: Add, edit, w600 h350 vFile, %FileContents%
