Dialog Variable Help

Let>%Cont5_Dlg.SNum_L1% = SN

What are you intending to do with that line? If you want to assign a value to a variable called Cont5_Dlg.SNum_L1 then you don't need the %%

Is SN a variable assigned somewhere else in the macro?

Otherwise I don't see why you expect %SN% to display...

Thanks guys.
I didn't explain myself very well.
All I was trying to do is pass a variable data to a new variable,
to see if it was being passed to another script, that I had added
the "Include" statement to, It was strange because some of the data was passed
and some didn't get passed. I think I know why now.

This is a new test script that I can't seem to get working ether
Changing the value of num has no effect -
I may not the syntax correct or misunderstand the concept of "Label" with "If"

Let>num=7
Label>DglBox
If>%num%>1,FiveCount
If>%num%>5,TenCount
If>%num%>10,TwentyCount
Goto>Exit

Label>FiveCount
Let>Dlg=Cont5
Goto>Exit

Label>TenCount
Let>Dlg=Cont10
Goto>Exit

Label>TwentyCount
Let>Dlg=Cont20
Label>Exit

Message>%Dlg%

Thanks

Sorry,
Posted to soon I solved the issue - by using the correct logic in my If statements.

Did it again poster to soon.
I discovered that I can't use = with the "If" statement.
So I'm back to where I started.
Thankful for any and all input .

I think this was sample script, but for the record, you may want to reverse the sequence of the IF lines.

This is your sample.

Code: Select all

Let>num=7
Label>DglBox
If>%num%>1,FiveCount
If>%num%>5,TenCount
If>%num%>10,TwentyCount
Goto>Exit

This will always go to FiveCount since all num will be >1

Suggest you may want this instead:

Code: Select all

Let>num=7
Label>DglBox
If>%num%>10,TwentyCount
If>%num%>5,TenCount
If>%num%>1,FiveCount
Goto>Exit

Thanks Bob That worked –
Still trying to figure out why,
I know I'm a little slow
It thought it might have something to do with expressions
But it look like it's the order the If are read. Yes?
