i have an issue with guiGridList, i want to return the row of a specific column by matching a string???

[TAPL]

for i=0, guiGridListGetRowCount(theList) do 
    if guiGridListGetItemText(theList, i, theColumn) == "THE STRING HERE" then 
        -- Your code... 
    end 
end

TAPL, I have a doubt about this too. I want to do a gridlist with 3 weapons, for example, X, Y, Z, would this work? Or your example is for other thing?

for i=0, guiGridListGetRowCount(MYLIST) do 
if guiGridListGetItemText(MYLIST, i, COLUMN) == "X" then 
giveWeapon --blablabla 
end 
end 

?

You're welcome.

This example is looping through all rows in the grid list and then check if specific string is matching, by this way you can get the row id for the specific string in the grid list.

You can for example change the text of the row or just delete it or color it or even get the text from other column within the row. So this depends on what you want to do.

I assume that you have three column with multiple column selection and you wanted to get the selected item from the three column if so you will need this function:

guiGridListGetSelectedItems 

For giveWeapon you'll need to trigger to server side.
