bobheart 0 Posted May 26, 2004 I have a bunch of stuff i would like to put in some kind of database and then just put in a input box the word to search and show . (ackground_color) = Background color for the room. So if you put in ackground_color it shows Background color for the room. I look at this one not sure who did it now ? But I don't know if it will work for what I want to do ? expandcollapse popup$AppDataCommonDir = @AppDataCommonDir $AppDataDir = @AppDataDir $AutoItVersion = @AutoItVersion $CommonFilesDir = @CommonFilesDir $Compiled = @Compiled $ComputerName = @ComputerName $ComSpec = @ComSpec $CR = @CR $CRLF = @CRLF $DesktopCommonDir = @DesktopCommonDir $DesktopDir = @DesktopDir $DesktopHeight = @DesktopHeight $DesktopWidth = @DesktopWidth $DocumentsCommonDir = @DocumentsCommonDir $error = @error $FavoritesCommonDir = @FavoritesCommonDir $FavoritesDir = @FavoritesDir $HomeDrive = @HomeDrive $HomePath = @HomePath $HomeShare = @HomeShare $HOUR = @HOUR $IPAddress1 = @IPAddress1 $IPAddress2 = @IPAddress2 $IPAddress3 = @IPAddress3 $IPAddress4 = @IPAddress4 $LF = @LF $LogonDNSDomain = @LogonDNSDomain $LogonDomain = @LogonDomain $LogonServer = @LogonServer $MDAY = @MDAY $MIN = @MIN $MON = @MON $MyDocumentsDir = @MyDocumentsDir $OSBuild = @OSBuild $OSLang = @OSLang $OSServicePack = @OSServicePack $OSTYPE = @OSTYPE $OSVersion = @OSVersion $ProgramFilesDir = @ProgramFilesDir $ProgramsCommonDir = @ProgramsCommonDir $ProgramsDir = @ProgramsDir $ScriptDir = @ScriptDir $ScriptFullPath = @ScriptFullPath $ScriptName = @ScriptName $SEC = @SEC $StartMenuCommonDir = @StartMenuCommonDir $StartMenuDir = @StartMenuDir $StartupCommonDir = @StartupCommonDir $StartupDir = @StartupDir $SW_HIDE = @SW_HIDE $SW_MAXIMIZE = @SW_MAXIMIZE $SW_MINIMIZE = @SW_MINIMIZE $SW_RESTORE = @SW_RESTORE $SW_SHOW = @SW_SHOW $SystemDir = @SystemDir $TAB = @TAB $TempDir = @TempDir $UserProfileDir = @UserProfileDir $UserName = @UserName $WDAY = @WDAY $WindowsDir = @WindowsDir $WorkingDir = @WorkingDir $YDAY = @YDAY $YEAR = @YEAR While 1 $input = InputBox("what's it do?", "type or paste the macro or variable you're wondering about","@CommonFilesDir") If @error = 1 Then Exit;user clicked Cancel or closed the window $result = Eval( StringReplace($input, '@', '') ) If @error Then MsgBox(4096,"Error","Macro " & $input & " was not found.") Else MsgBox(4096,"Macro", $input & " = " & $result) EndIf WEnd Will this work for what I want to do ? and what would go first from the $ ackground_color part or the Background color for the room ?

pekster 0 Posted May 26, 2004 (edited) That referanced line of code is not valid. If your line begins with a variable, you should have an equals "=" symbol after, and then define the variable. Neither of which you did. Prehaps you ment for that line to be a comment? If not, you need fix the line to make it a valid command (like $var = 1 )Edited to make it sound better Edited May 26, 2004 by pekster [font="Optima"]"Standing in the rain, twisted and insane, we are holding onto nothing.Feeling every breath, holding no regrets, we're still looking out for something."[/font]Note: my projects are off-line until I can spend more time to make them compatable with syntax changes.
