Relational Operators

Hi,

I can't get the code below to work:

Let>P_Item=35

Random>100,R2

If>R2C:\Rec.txt,Res,Step2
Macro>C:\ItemSearch.scp
Endif

The If statement is never entered, even if R2 is less then or equal to 35. What do I need to do differently?

All help much appreicated

You are using a complex expression, so you must use the following syntax:

If>{%R2%<=%P_Item%}

Do I also need %'s around the variables R2 and P_Item?

Sorry, yes, my mistake, the variables will need % symbols around them. I have edited my previous reply accordingly.

Can you advise what constitutes a complex if statement?
Is comparing one variable to another variable a complex statement, but one value to another value a simple if statement?
Thanks,
Robert

See "complex expressions" in the help file. Complex expressions are set between curly braces { .. }. Simple statements have only one operator.
