Script Issue please help (Loop issue)

[MazeMiami]

For Some Reason $num wont loop like the rest it should increase by one number on each loop here is what i have

$num = 1
$FileF = "Female_"&$num&".wav "
$FileM = "male_"&$num&"m.wav" 
$extF = 3003
$extM = 3004

Do

Send("cp /root/voice/female/"&$FileF&" /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/"&$extF&"/unavail.wav{enter}")

Send("cd /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/"&$extF&"/ {enter}")

send("sox -t wav unavail.wav -r 8000 -c1 -t gsm unavail.gsm resample -ql {enter}") 

Send("cd /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/"&$extF&"/ {enter}")

send("rm unavail.wav {enter}")

send("y {enter}")

$extF = $extF + 2 
$num = $num + 1

Until $num = 177

Looks as if it should work. A common debugging technique is to add something like this:

msgbox(0,"",$num)

to the end of but inside the loop so oyu can check what's happening to that variable (or any otehr variable). That should help you determine what the problem is.

Just ran that little test and the loop is going up but why isn't the the file changing see any error i may be missing ?

I'm confused yet again

Try a different loop eg

While $num < 178

<do stuff>

WEnd

It's better to use $num += 1 then $num = $num + 1

and is this an Iphone program? those directories look familiar.

Edit: woohoo 300th post. My spamming is massified

You have to reset your male/female file variables every time the $num variable changes. So:

$num = 1
$FileF = "Female_" & $num & ".wav "
$FileM = "male_" & $num & "m.wav"
$extF = 3003
$extM = 3004

Do
    Send("cp /root/voice/female/" & $FileF & " /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/"&$extF&"/unavail.wav{enter}")
    Send("cd /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/" & $extF & "/ {enter}")
    send("sox -t wav unavail.wav -r 8000 -c1 -t gsm unavail.gsm resample -ql {enter}")
    Send("cd /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/" & $extF & "/ {enter}")
    send("rm unavail.wav {enter}")
    send("y {enter}")

    $extF = $extF + 2
    $num = $num + 1
    $FileF = "Female_" & $num & ".wav"
    $FileM = "male_" & $num & "m.wav"
Until $num = 177

Nice thanks a lot works !

Now would you mind explaining why i have to do that for this and not the other strings ?

Thanks Again!!

neither way is better.

What do you mean not for the other strings? What other strings are you talking about?

Using a variable within a variable is not a persistent/dynamic process, its static. Meaning that once you set a variable it does not change even if the variable within it does.
