Problem with IF

[foxhunter]

Sound strange, I don't understand the following behaviour:

Code: Select all

var := "test"

if var="test"     ; will NOT be executed
{
	msgbox IF1 statement executed
}	

if (var="test")   ; will be executed !!
{
	msgbox IF2 statement executed
}

I know, it's a matter of brackets, but in my mind both IF statements should work...
Has somebody a hint why brackets are needed (as when using numbers (e.g. var:=1) both works):

Code: Select all

var := 1

if var=1     ; will be executed !!
{
	msgbox IF1 statement executed
}	

if (var=1)   ; will be executed !!
{
	msgbox IF2 statement executed
}
