asenv	Posted - 06/12/2010 : 07:19:23 AM Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 8.1G SR1 Operating System: win 2000 pro I have a question about quotes. If I execute the next script win -t p testplot testplot; win -T d 123 Data1; win -t m Testmatrix1 Testmatrix1; doc -e O { if (%H=="Data1") {type "%H exists"} } I get: Data1 exists If I replace Data1 with Testmatrix1 I get nothing. Assuming the windows are there execute only this: doc -e O { if (%H=="Testmatrix1") {type "%H exists"} } If I replace the double quotes with single ones '' the I get: Testmatrix1 exists doc -e O { if (%H=='Testmatrix1') {type "%H exists"} } So why the double quotes work with all windows except the matrix book? Should I use in this case generally single quotes? In all examples in the labtalk manual are used double quotes: %M = test; if (%M == "TEST") type -b "Yes!";

Penn	Posted - 06/13/2010 : 03:04:57 AM Hi, It is invalid to use single quotes for string. Maybe you can try the way like the following script. win -t p testplot testplot; win -T d 123 Data1; win -t m Testmatrix1 Testmatrix1; doc -e O { string str$ = %H; if (str$=="Testmatrix1") {type "%H exists"} } Penn
