Title: DEBUGGING AND SYNTAX ERROR
Post by: TexasPete on October 15, 2009, 05:04:03 AM

CB is telling me that the following line of code has a syntax error in it.

IF ScreenAcross < 1500 then
ScreenAcross = ScreenAcross+100
endif

I have tried to use "STOP" in a line of code to bring the debugger up. I am not having much luck. To my understanding the line should work.
I have another line that looks like the following and CB has no problem with it.

IF ScreenAcross > 0 then
ScreenAcross = ScreenAcross -100
endif

I assume there is some little unusual that I don't know.

Thanks

Yes, I made sure the zeros are zeros.

I think 'then' keyword in CB does not support line wraps. You can remove it, or put the second line after 'then', and remove 'endif'.

Code Select

if condition then action

if condition
	action
endif

Yes Sapero is right Creative Basic dont support Then in this case.

Code Select

IF ScreenAcross < 1500 
ScreenAcross = ScreenAcross+100
ENDIF

I hope that you will remember this ;)
