I'd expect vartype() to show an undefined element of an (associative) array as 'undefined'. But it's shown as 'string'. To repro (see following script): - Array $GAf[] is undefined - Define it by setting one element "c" to 0 - now check any other (non-existing) element by VarType(): it's s...

OK: *have* tested. Result: fixed

Thanks! Saw the beta

Will test this evening...

In short?
After an unset-stmt (on an array and a string) defining array-vars by setting an element, or just setting elements, change (these or other) elements.
Without the unset they don't.

Seems I got closer, seems you *could* not really find it :mrgreen: Following script when executed shows the wrong result: §agnr = "ALL CMDS", must be =0 Comment out the UnSet stmt, retry: it's correct! If no bug iin XY - I convince: no risk in script! :maf: //$ "Test" $tcmdl = <<...

OK - I'll try to play a bit, maybe with using some other array before doing the stmt in question.

And I had an impression as if (maybe) another strange thing with an array happened. So lets go!

(The script isn't short - but it seems in the end it will mostly contain debug lines )

A copy of 4 stmts of a real script: $tcmdlf[$nbrcmd + 1] = 999; // to define all (prev) elements as '' (and mark end-of-array) $debugl = ""; // D E B U G D E B U G D E B U G D E B U G D E B U G echo "El. 0-4 = $tcmdlf[0] - $tcmdlf[1] - $tcmdlf[2] - $tcmdlf[3] - $tcmdlf[4]"; // D...

Sorry for being late! In the moment I'm trying to do as much as I can only by the data I've generated. And I'm also trying to create "kind of dialogs" with inputselect(). Before I just related on the line number as return - but this is hard if there are not only lines with lists of command...

Hi jupe, thanks for the idea! First I thought to "cheat" this way is bad - if e.g. someone copies such a text and wonders about the strange way that pipe works. But then I noticed that you can't (yet) copy text from inputselect-display :whistle: So I think I'll try this, if no other idea w...

Sad to hear, but half expected. Don't know VBA. In XY it's like sub, but without creating a new environment, i.e. a new level of variables. (That's why it seems so siimple...) OK: this means a lot more work, a lot more planning, and maybe in the end let plans be too diffiicult. I'll see. Have a nice...

I started successfully to use InputSelect() with style=1024 to specify a line like OperandName|13.2 where OperandName is the name of an operand, and 13.2 is a code for "what to display" when selected, i.e. operand 2 of command 13. Now an operand is [separator="|"] :veryconfused: ...

(I dare to ask. Who asks can lose, who doesn't has lost.) (And, at chance, you just have heared what's it good for :whistle: ) Often in a script I have the need for the same logic in different places. In "general" that's where you use a function. *But:* often this code is connected to the...

Seeing this picture I had to laugh :lol: It looks very like what I'm working on. :party: (No wonder, it shows output by InputSelect().) But it's: - generated, there's a script to generate a current basic data file - can show all commands on a general level (much like your picture) - can be searched ...

Thanks again: the bug is gone! And thanks for the demonstration :biggrin: That's why I often mock around for "simple, clear and unique logic"! (Though I didn't do here.) ForEach(array) says (array as variable), while ForEach(list) says (variable, list) From the first moment I saw this I th...

Is it just me? Working with arrays *is* problem :masked: The following code is kind of "super-compressed" from real code. 1) a ForEach() with an array. OK 2) behind that an unrelated ForEach with a list. Abend = :bug: ! Delete 1st foreach, or skip it (incl it's continue): 2nd ForEach is OK...
