All well and good until I started adding in more variables as the app grew. I would modify the file, encrypt it then debug my app reading in values. I get to one of the case selections that read something like myProperty = value but it bugs out with the warning "expected string but got string" Anyone else ever have this issue? I cannot reproduce it unless I use my app??? eg Load a file into memory block Iterate line by line Get param Get value Select Case Case "someValue" myProperty = value //bugs out with "expected string but got string" // There are many more selections here that all work fine End Select Loop until some end point _________________ Regards Chris Musty Specialised Technologies Pty Ltd Software | Electronics | IT | Multimedia http://www.specialised.net.au Top Specialised Post subject: Re: Expected String but got String????Posted: Sat Nov 13, 2010 11:01 pm Joined: Thu Aug 26, 2010 6:57 am Posts: 35 Location: Sydney Australia Never mind...

Start on line ahead of the case statement and go to the next case statement. Or delete that section and retype it. Maybe you've got an illegal charater embedded in your code, or maybe you're using an illegal variable name.

I have no idea why but it just worked. No issue since then. _________________ Regards Chris Musty Specialised Technologies Pty Ltd Software | Electronics | IT | Multimedia http://www.specialised.net.au Top Display posts from previous: All posts1 day7 days2 weeks1 month3 months6 months1 year Sort by AuthorPost timeSubject AscendingDescending Page 1 of 1 [ 4 posts ] -- Over 1500 classes with 29000 functions in one REALbasic plug-in collection.
