I'm writing code that requires that I be able to store expressions in a
table. So, for example, let's say I do the following:
' Get the contents of row 1, col 1 from table GARY and
' put them into a variable called sVALUE
fetch first from GARY
sVALUE = GARY.COL1
Let's assume that the cell contains "iSAMPLE = 10" thus sVALUE would
take on that string value. Nothing unusual so far. But, now I would
like to use the string as a precondition in an IF statement. For
example, say I have an integer variable called iSAMPLE that has been
assigned a specific value. I want to use the contents of sVALUE to see
if it equals 10.
IF sVALUE THEN X = 2
So if iSAMPLE = 10, then X would equal 2.
Is this possible in MB, and if so, what type of variable would sVALUE
be?
I'm stumped on this one. Any ideas?
Thanks
GS
