Hi,

I don't know what you intend with it, but the correct code should be:

sub var
 set a= ActiveDocument.Variables("Variable1")
 ' setting the content
 a.SetContent "4",true

 ' reading the content
 value = a.GetContent.String
 for i = 1 to value
 msgbox "Hello"
 next
end sub

Don't mix up variables from the qvw-application and variables from the module. You can't mix them!

Please , if I want to add the counter how I do.

Example (do not work)

' setting the content
a.SetContent "4",true

' reading the content
value = a.GetContent.String
for i = 1 to value

msgbox "Hello"+ i
next
end sub

the value of o is avaiable?

The value of "o"?? What "o"?

Nevertheless, it must be

msgbox "Hello" & i

It's a string concatenation, not an addition.

Zero?

The i value is 1 the first ... and 4 the last

Now works. Pleas try the script to understand What I would to do ..

The documentation is many time enough or bad explained.

The part of APi, VBscript is very enough.

thanks

Yes, of course, if value = 4 and you start

for i = 1 to value

then i starts with 1 and ends with 4.

Everything clear now?
