ok, ididnt really word the above question very well, something more understandable;

ive got an ammocrate that has people constantly taking weapons from and putting weapons to, how would i make a little hint box to pop up listing the contents of the crate??

I suspect it can't be done.    There is no command that returns the contents of an ammo crate and AFAIK nobody has figured out a workaround.  

Faking it would be hard:  you'd need a trigger that detected anybody close to the crate and whether their weapons loadout had changed.    If you're a tip top scripter that might be fun:  if you're not, I suggest you rethink the mission slightly.     Always work with the game engine, not against it or with the one you wish it had.

Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play

Really?

I thought in Restistance thed did that as a matter of accumilating weapons.

Don't take my word for it though, I've no Resistance.
