Multiple Variables in a string

[Cheeze Man]

inputuser = pie1;
inputpass = pie2;
inputfile = pie3;
Dialog.Message("Notice", inputuser inputpass inputfile );

To make the dialogue say "pie1 pie2 pie3"
so one string (or whatever you call it) is using not 1 but 3 variables, if you don't undestand please tell me, i am not that good at explaining things

Hi, check out "concatenation" in the user's guide, i.e.

Dialog.Message("Notice", inputuser.." "..inputpass.." "..inputfile );

[Cheeze Man]

thank you, but when i bulid the project and click the button, it gives me the message

"On Click, Line 4: attempt to concatenate global `inputfile' (a nil value)"

why does it say that?

[Corey]

Because you didn't set your variable.

If you're using the code shown in your original post, then you need to assign values to each string by enclosing each one in quotes. Try something like -

inputuser = "pie1";
inputpass = "pie2";
inputfile = "pie3";
Dialog.Message("Notice", inputuser.." "..inputpass.." "..inputfile );

its a bit too late i used a more complex way

create = "-c -b";
user = Input.GetText("user");
pass = Input.GetText("pass");
out = "output.txt";
userout = out .. " " .. user;
useroutc = create .. " " .. userout;
b = useroutc .." " .. pass;
result = File.Run("AutoPlay\\Docs\\htpasswd.bat", b, "AutoPlay\\Docs", SW_SHOWNORMAL, false);

thanks anyway

Well the main thing is that now you know how to concatenate.
