Re: Scripting what should be a simple loop...

Hi David: One way to dynamically create a variable on the fly is using the "do" command. repeat with i = 1 to 10 get fld ("Field" & i) of grp Allfields -- put the value into "it" do "put it into tVar" & i end repeat Two additional things to consider: 1) When referring to an object nam

Re: Scripting what should be a simple loop...

You do indeed need a 'do' statement - but the first half of the statement (dealing with the field) doesn't need it, only the second half. So I would find it more readable to do put (fld "field" & i) into temp do "put temp into quote & "tVar" & quote & i OK, it's marginally inefficient,

Re: Scripting what should be a simple loop...

As an aside, what Macro Substitution would be able to do is dereference variables at runtime. Assuming an amperstand was the dereference character: put "field" into theObject put "tVar" into theVar put 1 into i put field &theObject.&i of group "AllFields" into &theVar.&i This was how dBase and o

Re: Timer Pause script

The problem is that the global variable startSeconds keeps the same value so when you restart the timer after a pause, you need to reset the startSeconds to the current seconds less the time already on the timer. Cheers, Sarah Sent from my iPad On 10/07/2010, at 8:34 AM, JosepM wrote: > >

Re: Scripting what should be a simple loop...

Setting variables whose names are construct dynamically requires using "do". So this should work: put "Field" & i into tFieldName put "put fld tFieldName of grp AllFields into tVar" & i into tCommand do tCommand Probably an easier solution is to use an array: put fld "Field" & i of grp "AllFields

You need a do statement. Otherwise you would need Macro Substitution which Runrev does not support. put "put fld" && quote & "Field" & i & quote && "of group" & quote & AllFields & quote && "into tvar" & i into theCommand do theCommand -- careful of line wraps Easier to read is: put "put fld f
