These limitations derive from the fact that when the expressions between % signs are evaluated as a script, even if they are a simple variable name. Therefore all BASIC Script keywords, functions names, and operators are forbidden as variables names (e.g. while, wait, like, instr, date, time, now, daysinyear, etc ). Also all Windows environment variables such as PATH, DATE, TMP, PROMPT are also reserved and cannot be declared as new variables. They are, however, accessible and readable, whether or not they were declared "as parameters" in an AMVARIABLE statement. ------------------------- ![]() Leonard Amabile | Director, Cross Platform Support AutoMate | InterMapper | Skybot | Divisions of HelpSystems T: +1.213.738.1700 | F: +1.213.738.7665 |
