LaRetta Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 $str = "" $str <> "" I would highly suspect that even Wim would disagree with both of these. Wim, time to put your grump on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eos Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I would highly suspect that even Wim would disagree with both of these. FWIW, even I disagree … $str = "" $str <> "" So whatever happened to IsEmpty()? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyBigFM9Project Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 FWIW, even I disagree … So whatever happened to IsEmpty()? Each to their own I suppose. I wasn't able to get consistent results with IsEmpty(), in particular with V.9 since I have had it for so long, so I found this to be a sufficient workaround. Perhaps they have bulletproofed it since then. Plus it is easy for me to reuse the code for something other than "IsEmpty". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comment Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I wasn't able to get consistent results with IsEmpty(), in particular with V.9 Can you provide an example of an inconsistent result? I am not aware of any issue with the IsEmpty() function, in any version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyBigFM9Project Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Can you provide an example of an inconsistent result? I am not aware of any issue with the IsEmpty() function, in any version. I didn't save any examples at the time, so I would have to recreate it in order to provide an example. I think I was using FM to parse delimited text files generated by another program at the time (wanted to try it this way instead of writing a C program). So the only thing I did was substitute that code out, and then it worked perfectly. I have had no problem with using that since. If it hasn't been a problem for you then that is great.

madman411 Posted January 31, 2015 Author Share Posted January 31, 2015 Wow guys. Such great advice, and some of it a little past my understanding. I have managed to come up with a work around to my original question. I have a new dilemma though. I want to invoke a popover using a keystroke. I can script the object (in this case a popover button) being selected, but I'm failing to find a way how to activate the button from within the script itself (i.e. Executing the spacebar or Enter ASCII code without the user actually pressing that key in addition to the keystroke that initially ran the script).

Wim Decorte Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Name one of the objects inside your popover and use the Go To Object script step... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
