You can use VarGet.
http://www.amibroker.com/f?varget
if( IsNull( VarGet("something" ) ) )
{
// does NOT exist
}
or you can use typeof
if( typeof( Variable ) == "undefined" )
{
printf( "Variable does NOT exist");
}

Subject: Re: [amibroker] Does the variable exist ?
Thanks but that's not what I mean Aron. I want to check in AFL if a variable
exitsts or not. So a variable being defined in the program. Let's say you have
a loop that creates variables with VarSet going from AmiP0 thru AmiP9. You
don't know where the loop ends and therefore do not know which variables you
are getting. For that reason you must have a possibility tot check if a
variable exists or else you are getting a syntax error. So there must be an
instruction in AFL that provides this check. Something like IF (
VarExist(AmiP5)) etc. I just don't get the right instruction ...
Regards, Ton.
