Compare filetime to Now()

Hi all,

I'm a bit at loss. Trying to run a script only, if the filetime of a qvd is older then 3 hours.

Script is:

let vFileTime1 = FileTime('lib://path_to_my _file);

IF $(vFileTime1) < (Now()-MakeTime(3)) then

load ...

Getting this error:

The following error occurred:

Unexpected token: '3', expected one of: 'OPERATOR_PLUS', 'OPERATOR_MINUS', 'OPERATOR_MULTIPLICATION', 'OPERATOR_DIVISION', 'OPERATOR_STRING_CONCAT', 'like', 'and', ...

The error occurred here:

IF 1/16/2023 >>>>>>3<<<<<<:02:37 PM > (Now()-MakeTime(3)) then

Thanks for your help!

Try without dollar sign expansion:

IF vFileTime1 < (Now()-MakeTime(3)) then
