MACRO ERROR

[Silvio.Falconi]

I'm converting an my old clipper application and I have a strange error on compilation

Code: Select all  Expand view

numeri:= 1
         do while (numeri <= 10)
            conta:= 1
            rmax:= 0
            do while (conta <= 90)
               num:= "N" + LTrim(Str(conta))
               if (Val(&num) >= rmax)
                  massimo:= SubStr(num, 2, 2)
                  rmax:= Val(&num)
               endif
               conta:= conta + 1
            enddo
            num:= "N" + LTrim(massimo)
            numeri:= numeri + 1
            @ riga, 1 + numeri  * 5 say massimo + " (" + &num + ")"    OF oAmbRitardo       SIZE 30,10
              &num:= "0"
         enddo

give me error at this line

@ riga, 1 + numeri * 5 say massimo + " (" + &num + ")" OF oAmbRitardo SIZE 30,10

errors

source\PAmbata.prg(176) Error E0042 Macro of declared symbol '{|| massimo + " (" + &num + ")"}'
3 errors

why and How I can resolve ?

[Silvio.Falconi]

I understood it not want the character " (" and ") "

but How I can write on videp sample ==> 100 (8) ?

Silvio

just use the var-name
" (" + num + ")"

@ riga, 1 + numeri * 5 say massimo + " (" + &num + ")" OF oAmbRitardo SIZE 30,10

sample :

I := 1
FOR I := 1 TO 10
num := "N" + LTrim(str(I))
MsgAlert( "massimo (" + num + ")" )
NEXT

num =============>N87
&num =============> 50

if I not insert & it not show the right number

because &Num is 50 but only num is N87

for now I resolve erase the ( and ) and insert font bold
it is a mathematical calculation to find the major late numbers and the weeks (or contests) late in the lottery game in Italy
