I have an application that requires transferring data from one script to another. The following scheme worked fine in Win 2000 but not in XP. ***************** DEFINITIONS Yerr(i) = -W/2+W*(i)/20 PLOTS summary("") export file= 'Next_step.txt' repeat i=0 to 20 report(val(x2,L,Yerr(i))) as 'Xd'+$i report(val(y2, L, Yerr(i))) as 'Yd'+$i endrepeat ***************** The problem is with concatenation. On my desktop, which runs Win 200, statements like 'Xd'+$i work fine. But on my laptop, which runs XP, the concatentation doesn't work. I've had to replace the repeat loop with straight code to avoid the 'Xd'+$i construction. Is there a way to get around this? | ||

Software rot has afflicted the processing of string concatenations. I have corrected this error and posted a developmental copy for Win32 at www.pdesolutions.com/download/xfpde5017x3win.exe This is a self-extracting archive containing only flexpde5.exe. Extract over your old file, or change the name of the old file first. We don't have any Win 2000 machines left, so I can't really test it, but it's hard to imagine a scenerio that would make this problem OS dependent. | ||

Thank you. The problem is fixed. The script now works on both machines. I can't imagine why the problem only showed up on the XP machine. But, I swear, it did. |
