The /did command

The /did command allows you to modify the values of controls in a dialog, eg. changing the text in an edit control, or setting focus to a button, or deleting lines in a listbox.

 

  /did -ftebvhnmcukradiogjsl name id [n] [text | filename]

 

  -f    set focus on id

  -t    set id as default button

 

  -e    enable id

  -b    disable id

  -v    make id visible

  -h    hide id

 

  -n    enables editbox

  -m    disables editbox

 

  -c    check checkbox/radiobutton list/combo line

  -u    uncheck checkbox/radiobutton list/combo line

  -k    works with -cu, keeps other selections in a listbox

 

  -s    checks the checkbox of an item in a listcb control

  -l    unchecks the checkbox of an item in a listcb control

 

  -r    clear all text in id

 

  -a    add line of text to end

  -d    delete Nth line

  -i    insert text at Nth line

  -o    overwrite Nth line with text

 

  -g    set a new icon/bmp to an icon control

        /did -g name id [n] filename

 

  -z    resets the width of horizontal scrollbar in listbox

 

  -j    resets the edited setting in an editbox

 

Where name identifies the dialog and id is the id number of the control you want to modify.

 

If you want to modify several controls at the same time, you can specify multiple id numbers separated by commas, eg. /did -b name 2,12-16,20 etc.

 

You can select a range of text in an editbox using /did -c name id [n] [start [end]]. This selects line N in editbox, and sets selection to specified range of characters.

 

You can mark a 3state checkbox as indeterminate by specifying both -cu switches.

 

You can access the edit control in a combobox by using 0 as the N value.

 

To change the range of a scrollbar control, you can use /did -z name id [min max].
