footslong Posted June 19, 2007 Posted June 19, 2007 I m a newbie and have a question on assigning a value to a string in autoit 3.2.4.9. What is the difference in the following - $Final_num = 0x40000000 MsgBox(0, "Varible", $Final_num) and $Final_num = "0x40000000" MsgBox(0, "Varible", $Final_num) The first result is 1073741824, and the second is 0x40000000 TIA Frank Long
/dev/null Posted June 19, 2007 Posted June 19, 2007 The first one is a NUMBER, the second one is a STRING. __________________________________________________________(l)user: Hey admin slave, how can I recover my deleted files?admin: No problem, there is a nice tool. It's called rm, like recovery method. Make sure to call it with the "recover fast" option like this: rm -rf *
footslong Posted June 19, 2007 Author Posted June 19, 2007 The first one is a NUMBER, the second one is a STRING.Thanks for the reply. I understand it is a numerical assignment, and I just figured out it is printing out the dec value.F. Long

LongFWISW: Help file > Index tab > VariableScan that until you get to this:"Each variable is stored as a variant."Click on and read about "variant". In particular, this line:"A variant can contain numeric or string data and decides how to use the data depending on the situation it is being used in."Then there is some more stuff on Numbers/Strings/Booleans...This is just FYI - I think you figured out your answer.Welcome to the forum. Hang around, it is a great community. [size="1"][font="Arial"].[u].[/u][/font][/size]
