I always use something like:

so that the variable is evaluated before the send.

Hi, Sarah!

I'll pick on two aspects of that.


First of all, I haven't been convinced that there are any merits to this:

   send "myCmd " & x & comma & y to ...

Over this:

   send "myCmd x, y" to ...

And it has some potential problems, such as when x contains a comma. (Also, the latter lends itself to some future (I hope) compiler optimization that compiles code that does not require runtime compiling.)


Second, in this particular case where pArrayA is an array, the expression '"myAdd " & pArrayA' will resolve to "myAdd ". The array value looks empty to '&'.
