Compare Strings using if statement

[aqua267]

I am trying to compare two strings and call a subroutine if the strings are equal. The code always goes to else statement even if the strings are the same.
My code snippet

Let>Name="This is test"
//From my application, I am getting GetName
GetClipBoard>GetName
wait>0.5
if>GetName=Name
GoSub>GoHere
else
Print a message
endif

The code always hits the Print a message even when GetName's value is same as Name. Please help!

Thanks.

Whatever text you test for has to match EXACTLY. Case and characters.

"This is test" will not match This is test nor will it match "this is test". Step through your code in the editor and examine the watchlist to be sure you are getting exact matches. Also Watch for trailing spaces.

BTW, one common technique to simplify this, is to convert both strings to upper case before comparing.

Thanks for the replies. It appears there was a trailing space. I trim it now before comparing.
