hi! i'm rather new to revolution media and have been trying to get my head around the syntax. I need help with a few things.
i need to make numbered 'boundaries', between certain numbers, you get a certain output if that number is inserted into a text field.

this is the error i encounter and want to be able to get round this, any ideas?

Hi Wynn,

you have to check every condition separately and use the correct syntax

1. Get the content of the field (Everything in a field is TEXT, so you cannot write "...number in field XYZ"!)
2. Check BOTH conditons, see below!
3 NO period at the end of a script line

!

Code: Select all

on mouseup
   put fld "studentmark" into tNumber
   ## Now check the TWO conditions:
   if tNumber >= 0 AND tNumber <= 40 then
     answer "Fail!"
  end if
end mouseup
