 |
|
I have recently come across a problem with the @equal () function and was wondering if anybody else found the same problem and if it is a normal error - if you know what i mean 
This is the problem. The following line of code does not process the equal properly.
| Code: | %1 = time (1)
if @equal(%1,time (1))
rem do something
else
rem do something else
end
|
I find that the @equal() function does not like brackets.

( ) symbols are special characters in VDS. They typically are used with functions such as @fmul(). Put " " marks around them to fix the problem:
| Code: |
%1 = "time (1)"
if @equal(%1,"time (1)")
rem do something
else
rem do something else
end

that was quick
I knew about @ in that it had to be placed within "" as in an email address but i did not realise that this was the case for brackets too.
Thanks for letting me know,
Serge
