PITA_Pan Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 I am prompting my user for a Date and Time and storing this in a date/time variable. I want them to know the context of the Date and Time they are entering however this changes so I put a text variable in the "prompt" field of the Date/Time dialog box. But when I run I don't get the contents of the text variable, I get the literal name of the variable itself (%TEST%). <VARIABLE SET STRING Option="\x00" Destination="%TEST%" Value="foo" NoEmbeddedVars="FALSE"/> <DATE/TIME Flags="\xB3" Date="3/31/2011 9:25:35 AM" Day_Offset="0" Month_Offset="0" Year_Offset="0" Hour_Offset="0" Minute_Offset="0" Second_Offset="0" Prompt="%TEST%" Left="Center" Top="Center" Monitor="0" Variable="%OPEN_SI%" IsDateVar="TRUE"/> Using a variable as a prompt works in other prompts, but not this one. This works well: <VARIABLE SET STRING Option="\x00" Destination="%TEST%" Value="foo" NoEmbeddedVars="FALSE"/> <VARIABLE SET INTEGER Option="\x01" Destination="%N[1]%" Prompt="%TEST%" Mask="FALSE" OnTop="FALSE" Left="Center" Top="Center" Monitor="0"/> Ideas? BTW, in the case of bugs, is there any way to review what has already been submitted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acantor Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Confirming the bug. I am getting the same result. The variable is not evaluated, but appears literally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
