ReadLN not always correctly reading into a variable...

Hi all !

I have a little script that does the following :

Label>GetItem
Random>850,line
ReadLn>e:\msched\data\items.txt,line,itemno
If>itemno=##EOF##,GetItem
Send Character/Text>%itemno%

Now what seems to happen is every now and then - very intermittently - %itemno% outputs "line,itemno" instead of a read line. Of course, I can place a check for this in the code - but any reason why ReadLn would do this ?

Hi,

Have a try by replacing the literal "line" with the variable %line%.
The problem seems to identify which line should be read.

Code: Select all

ReadLn>e:\msched\data\items.txt,%line%,itemno

Hope that helps.
