Problem Repeating Dialog

[roo]

I hope one of you is able to assist with this...

The problem is that I have to return to the initial welcome screen and if I re-click on the same option as the first time (IP Configuration), it will trigger an error when repeating Dialog>ModelSelection.

There was no error the first time around though!?!

Please let me know what I am missing here.

Thanks,

You can't repeat a dialog block definition for the same dialog name (Dialog>Name thru EndDialog>Name) Take the dialog blocks out of the loop. I usually put them at the top of the script then call them with a Show> later in the script.

Also, I don't know if its a problem or not but I'd be a little nervous about having a label and a subroutine with the same name

Oh!...ok...I just did what you said and not only does it work but it actually makes since to me now.

Thanks for helping me out on this.

As for having a label and a subroutine with the same name; I will change that in order to avoid any complications but would love to hear from anyone who has encountered issues or who have done so without issues so that i know for sure.

Thanks again JRL.

Here is an example in which the script may not branch as you'd expect because a subroutine and label have the same name. Assuming I want to go to the subroutine when the If> statement tests true, I have a problem. It will always jump to the label.

Code: Select all

Let>name=Dick
If>name=Dick,JRL

SRT>JRL
  MDL>Sub
END>JRL

Label>JRL
MDL>label

Got it.
I'm very new to all this and appreciate the insight.
Thanks.
