no this was a stupid error copying.... origanl script is:

Load
MsgBox('ANALIZZO ANNO IN CORSO?', 'ANNO ANALISI', 'OKCANCEL', 'ICONQUESTION') as Y
autogenerate 1;
if Y=1 then;
trace yes;
else
trace no;
end if;
trace $(MyMessage);

I am not sure what the trace part is for but from the look of it I would say that the " ; " behind then should not be there.

Hi. Try like this:

Load

MsgBox('ANALIZZO ANNO IN CORSO?', 'ANNO ANALISI', 'OKCANCEL', 'ICONQUESTION') as Y

autogenerate 1;

let vY=Peek('Y');

if $(vY)=1 then;

trace yes;

else

trace no;

end if;

trace $(MyMessage);

no Dennis, this statement is correct:

trace Main table loaded; trace $(MyMessage);

(try this example in a script and it will write "Main table Loaded" in the Script Execution Progress popup window...)

what I do not understand is whatever button I press it uses the else part, even if the variable is correct!

Statement “IF” did not work with fields.
