 |
|
I have a quirky problem I just can't seem to solve. I have a program within which has a button which allows users to switch projects by going to another program to select the project, then return to my program to continue the script. At one GUI, there's a button named "Change". This sets a flag variable (Change = 1) and uses GoSub which is the following code:
| Code: | RunDriveMap:
If Mapper = Newforma
{
SetTitleMatchMode 2
IfWinExist, Newforma Project Center
WinActivate
else
Run, %ProgramFiles%\Newforma\Fourth Edition\Project Center\ProjectCenter.exe
If Change ;if launched from Change button, must wait til registry changes
{
Loop
{
Sleep, 2000
RegRead, NewNum, HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Software\Newforma\Fourth Edition\RecentProjects\RecentProject0, ProjectNumber
msgbox, Change flag is %Change%`nOld Project Num is %PrjNum%`nNew Project Name is %NewNum%
IfNotEqual, NewNum, PrjNum ;if the new number is different, break the loop
{
msgbox, NewNum - %NewNum%`nOldNum - %PrjNum%`nLoop is broken
break
}
}
return
}
else
{
Loop
{
Sleep, 2000
IfExist, W:\
break
}
return
}
} |
The problem is the comparison of NewNum versus PrjNum (the existing project number grabbed in an earlier part of the program. The msgbox I created in the RegRead loop above shows this:
Looks like the project numbers are equal yet it breaks the loop. I'd appreciate the help!
Regards,
James |

Instead of
| Code: | | IfNotEqual, NewNum, PrjNum |
try
| Code: | | IfNotEqual, NewNum, %PrjNum% |
| Help File wrote: | | IfNotEqual, var, value |
Variables don't need % signs; values do.

That's fine if you prefer doing it that way, but I recommend staying away from the special Ifs when possible. An Expression If can be used in all cases. An Expression If is any If followed by parenthesis or a function. In your case that would be:
| Code: | | If (NewNum != PrjNum) |
