Hello List,
first question:
Is the settings-object an array or a collection??
Onlinehelp says: " ...acts like an read, write array" ....but the syntax for
accessing its elements looks like collection.
Main-problem:
I'm writing a servicemenu which items should be configured through a
settingsfile.
I have my seetings-array up and can access each element of it, when I know
it's key.
My users only have a keypad with numbers from 0 to 9, so my settingsfile looks
like this.
[Actions]
900 = "WriteToGambasML"
901 = "HaveACupOfCoffee"
and so on. The users choice is stored in a variable called: sItem
What I need to do is, check if the entered number is a valid choice in my
servicemenue, but I don't know how.
A simple test for printing each element one by one of the collection???
doesn't work:
For Each sElement In hCFG["Actions"]
Print sElement;
Next
Accessing a single element this way doesn't work, too:
Print hCFG["Action/sItem"] ...because the quotes masks sItem
This try gives me a syntax-error
Print hCFG["Action/"sItem]
Any ideas??
Sorry, if this a stupid question, but I'm still learning all this OO-stuff.
TIA
Stevie
