Using 'empty'

I'm trying to do this:
Code: Select all
if fld "fldOutputPath" is empty
then
put fld "fldArticles" into oPuts
else
put fld "fldOutputPath" into oPuts
end if
But it just doesn't work. I'm guessing it's because I'm using 'empty' wrong. Can anyone help?

i tried your code and it works fine here. make sure these fields actually exist on the current card.

Hm, try this syntax structure:
Code: Select all
...
if fld "fldOutputPath" is empty then
put fld "fldArticles" into oPuts
else
put fld "fldOutputPath" into oPuts
end if
...
Code: Select all
If this does not work then
fld "fldOutputPath" <> empty
end if
Best

I think my first one did actually work.
I've had a bunch of problems with the IDE today, had to close it down due to some funny behaviour, now working OK.
Very odd.
