Where do the output from PRINT statement go?

Anonymous — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 09:49:00 GMT

I'm trying to script a an object in gdl. Now I've generated some coordinates that gives me a problem. I get a run-time error. The problem is, I can't inspect them. I try to use a PRINT statement, but I do not find the output. Please help me before I tear all my hair off

Hi Anne,

You can place the PRINT command right after the script you suspect there is the source of the problem. If its a loop sequence, then place it inside the loop and the PRINT command will generate a window with the variables instance values... like:

PRINT MyFlopyVarX, MyFlopyVarY

HTH.

The result of a PRINT statement should be a message box that appears and shows what you included in the PRINT statement. You then have to OK the Message Box for the script to continue.

Hi Anne,

please check the "Interrupt with error massages" or the "Write Report" checkboxes in the Work enviroment. These have to be check in.

That helped. I had unchecked the "Interrupt with error messages", so that was the reason why I could not see the output. So thank you very much
