Recall Dialog input for later use?

[BlackCat]

I am trying to create a macro that will create a new folder within an existing directory and then later use the path to save files within the nearly created folder.
I am using a dialog box to ask for user input. The user types the name for the new folder and then from a drop down menu below the user selects the directory path.

Here is my code for creating the new directory via dialog box:

Code: Select all

Show>Dialog1,modalResult

If>modalResult=1
    GetDialogProperty>Dialog1,MovieFolderName,Text,varMovieFolderName
    GetDialogProperty>Dialog1,GenreDropDown,Text,varGenreDropDown
    
    ChangeDirectory>varGenreDropDown
    CreateDir>varMovieFolderName

So within this "If" statement I am running a program where I need to enter the path created above. Once I get to the field to enter the path I have tried the following:

Code: Select all

Send>varGenreDropDown\varMovieFolderName

The text just shows up varGenreDropDown\varMovieFolderName instead of what the user enters in the dialog box, like when I created the new directory.

I have also tried:
Let>varMovieFolderName=x
Let>varGenreDropDown=y

Then
Send>y\x
This just shows the same as before.

I have also tried a second GetDialogProperty in various areas but that doesn't work either.

Any help given would be appreciated.

Thanks, I guess I missed that article somehow when I was looking through the blog.
