That is where you capture the value of LastKey to an intermediary variable
so you can clear the contents at an appropriate time like
PAUSE 2 USING 'Press the Enter Key'
SET VAR vkey1 TEXT = (LASTKEY(0))
SET VAR vkey2 TEXT = (LASTKEY(1))
SET VAR vMsg TEXT = ('According to LastKey 0, you pressed the' & .vkey1 &
'Key.')
PAUSE 2 USING .vMsg
SET VAR vMsg TEXT = ('According to LastKey 1, you pressed the' & .vkey2 &
'Key.')
set var vKey1 = null
set var vKey2 = null
If (Lastkey(0)) = ['enter'] then {Here is where you have a failure}
-- do something
endif
If vKey1 = ['enter'] then {Now you can access vKey1 and rely on its value
being }
{what you set it to or what you
expected it to contain}
-- do something
endif
