I cannot insert variables in texts

[GiulioM]

I've problems with inserting variables in text, like so: MsgBox (1, "", You've winned "$sum" dollars.")

Why? if i control w/ Syntax check prod, it says only "syntax control".

I want to obtain, for example, a window that says me: "You've winned $ 40 betting $ 10 on the horse 'Speed'."

Missing the &:

MsgBox (1, "", You've winned " & $sum & " dollars.")

Missing the &:

MsgBox (1, "", You've winned " & $sum & " dollars.")

Opt("ExpandVarStrings", 1)
$sum = 20

; 3 different versions ;)
MsgBox (1, "", "You've winned " & $sum & " dollars.")
MsgBox (1, "", "You've winned $sum$ dollars.")
MsgBox (1, "", StringFormat("You've winned %s dollars.", $sum))

MsgBox(1, "", "You've won " & $sum & " dollars.")

Fixed up a little.
