Variable not declared

[Burgs]

Greetings,

This should be an easy question. I'm getting a "Variable used without being declared" error. I know what that means, but I don't know what the variable is or where to declare it. I'm just declaring variables on the first line of the script, don't know if that is OK or not. Where is the error output so I can see what the variable is that is causing the problem(s)? Thank you.

If you run the script in SciTe you can double click on the error in the console to jump right to the error

You get this error when running the Compiled version of the script ?

Try running the source and you will get more information.

Thank you. It seems it is a string causing the trouble, how are strings properly declared, I see info in the help for variables (Dim) but not strings...?

A variable in autoit is a variant which means that it can hold almost everything

Declaring a string is no different than declaring a int.

So Dim, Local or Global will do just fine

can you show what are you doing with your code ?

Thank you. The Dim seems to correct it.
