If Statement variable not working with equals sign in Edit Script

[#1]

Hi, beginner here,

let computer = ComputerName();

If $(computer) = $(computer) then

     Set vDrive = a;

else

     Set vDrive = b;

end if

I am using this " If $(computer) = $(computer) ", because I know it will equal, expecting the IF statement to go to Set vDrive = a; 

but the code keeps going to  Set vDrive = b; not sure what is going on, any help is extremely appreciated.

Try If $(computer) = '$(computer)' - note the apostrophes added.

Hi

If you use a $ expansion, you will need to put this in quotes. But in this case, you don't need a $ expansion, for example:

If vComputer = vComputer2 Then

....

End If
