So I want to add a button to my program with GUI,CreateButton. How do I make the text on the button change each time it's clicked?

code:
var yourButton  := GUI.CreateButton (x, y, length, "Text", yourProcedure)

...then in your procedure when you want it to change.....

code:
GUI.Dispose (yourButton)
yourButton  := GUI.CreateButton (x, y, length, "New Text", yourProcedure)
GUI.Refresh

Although try NOT to use turing's GUI, ....it sucks, and is poorly done, try making your own, it will turn out better.

You can use the GUI.SetText() feature as well. (Name might be wrong, I don't have Turing on this comp)

naw, thats just for Text Fields



Side note: IS THERE ANY WAY OF GETTING FROM A "Text Box"? I know you can get from a "Text Field" using the GUI.GetText, but it doesn't work for boxs'. I would really want to try and avoid making my own GUI.
