I'm basically try to determine if the system is OSX or Windows. Not getting what I'd expect with the following.
Pointers anyone?
Code: Select all
if fld "fldSystemVersion" contains "10" then put "OSX" into fld "fldOSTitle" else
put "Windows" into fld "fldOSTitle"

put "WIndows" into fld "fldOSTitle"
What about something like this:
Code: Select all
if the platform is "macOS" then put "OSX" into fld "fldOSTitle" else
put "WIndows" into fld "fldOSTitle"

Doesn't work either, but I appreciate the assistance. Anyone else?

This code seems to be working:
Code: Select all
if fld "fldsystemversion" contains "10" then
put "osx" into fld "fldOStitle"
else
put "windows" into fld "fldOStitle"
end if
at least on the windows side. I have tried with things like 10.10.0, and 10.1.5, etc int the fld "systemversion" and it seems to be working. I am testing on a windows system though.....

Hi Shawn,
yep "systemversion'()" is it
But please allow a short question:
In your examples HOW and WHERE did your field "fldsystemversion" get filledt?
Best

Thanks!
And what exactly is the difference from using "the systemversion" directly?
