Quotation marks in a variable in load script editor

[ValeriaBonini]

Hi, don't ask why but i need to have a variable in the script editor with this value: 

set vBackgroundColor= if(GetFieldSelections(name)='mario',hex_color, vBackgroundColor) ;

and then in the background color settings in a button I need to put this variable.

is this possible? i'm having problems because of the ' '

what color you want to display if mario not selected in the name field?

[anat]

set vBackgroundColor= if(GetFieldSelections(name)='mario',red(), blue()) ;

You may try to wrap the variable-content with double-quotes, like:

set vBackgroundColor= "if(GetFieldSelections(name)='mario',hex_color, vBackgroundColor)";

This works for me:

set vBackgroundColor = "=if(GetFieldSelections(name)='mario',Red(),Blue())";

Note the = sign inside the double quotes.

But if itsa-not-Mario, you are trying to set vBackgroundColor to itself and I don't know how successful that will be.
