[Gambas-user] gb.args - Probably a dumb question but ...

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Perhaps try:

*Public Sub Form_Open()*

*  'Dim $runtoday As Boolean = True*

*  Args.Begin()*
*  'If Args.Has("t", "today", "Run plots for today") Then $runtoday = True*
*  Print *Args.Has("t", "today", "Run plots for today")
*Args.End*

*  'Print $runtoday*

*End*

Compile and run and check whether you get the correct values for Args.Has

That way you'll see under what initial value you need to give to $runtoday
and whether you need to modify your if slightly to get the functionality
you need

Hope this helps


Regards,
Dimtiris
