Moderators SmOke_N Posted November 14, 2008 Moderators Share Posted November 14, 2008 could you send me an example of character compare or matching?regardsOpen your help file and look for these bolded function names in the index of your help file (will have their own examples other than below):$var1 =StringLeft("var or string here", 3)$var2 = StringLeft("var or string here", 3)MsgBox(64, "Info", "String is equal = " & (StringCompare($var1, $var2) == 0)) Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators SmOke_N Posted November 14, 2008 Moderators Share Posted November 14, 2008 regards I don't know what kind of comparisons you're trying to do, but StringCompare() really should be used if you're trying to find out which string is greater/lesser than the other.If you're just trying to compare ABC to abc and you want it case sensitive: $var1 == $var2 would suffice, if you didn't want it case sensitive, $var1 = $var2 would do the trick as well (With StringLeft("string", 3) as as the var values).Might save yourself some time and look up Operators in the help file as well ... Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.
