Bug Problem. "Illegal Statement" Help!!!!!

Bug Problem. "Illegal Statement" Help!!!!!

Bug Problem. "Illegal Statement" Help!!!!!

(OP)
lease help! I'm writing my first If/Then statement within a loop and having a little trouble. When I compile the code the dreaded red bug warning pops up on the last line and I get two errors. They are:

* "Illegal Statement" If I click where "End Sub" is located
* "Unexpected end of file" If I click on the empty line below "End Sub"

Here is the code that I wrote:



CODE --> 

Do Until Sess0.Screen.GetString(20, 12, 5) = "     "
    DoEvents
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 11,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 12,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 13,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 14,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 15, 06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 16,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 17,06.
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 18,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 19,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 20,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("<Enter>")
        Sess0.Screen.WaitHostQuiet(g_HostSettleTime) 
        
	If (Sess0.Screen.GetString(1, 35, 6) = "DELETE") Then
    	    Do Until Sess0.Screen.GetString(1, 35, 6) = "      "
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("<Enter>")
    	Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys(" ")
        Sess0.Screen.WaitHostQuiet(g_HostSettleTime) 
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("<Enter>")

Loop

	System.TimeoutValue = OldSystemTimeout
End Sub

RE: Bug Problem. "Illegal Statement" Help!!!!!

the problem may be here

CODE

If (Sess0.Screen.GetString(1, 35, 6) = "DELETE") Then
    	    Do Until Sess0.Screen.GetString(1, 35, 6) = "      "

you have two Do's and one Loop

RE: Bug Problem. "Illegal Statement" Help!!!!!

(OP)
Yes, I need to figure out how to do a loop within a loop, IF the word DELETE pops up.

Hi,

1) you're missing an End If on the If statement with = "DELETE"

2) you're missing a Loop on the following Do Until statement.


Do I just write "End If" or can I use something like End If GetString(1, 35, 6) = " "?

Here is where I am now:

CODE --> 

Do Until Sess0.Screen.GetString(20, 12, 5) = "     "
    DoEvents
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 11,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 12,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 13,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 14,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 15,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 16,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 17,06.
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 18,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 19,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.MoveTo 20,06
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("D")
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("<Enter>")
        Sess0.Screen.WaitHostQuiet(g_HostSettleTime) 
Loop        
       	If (Sess0.Screen.GetString(1, 35, 6) = "DELETE") Then
    	    Do Until Sess0.Screen.GetString(1, 35, 6) = "      "
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("<Enter>")
    	Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys(" ")
        Sess0.Screen.WaitHostQuiet(g_HostSettleTime) 
        Sess0.Screen.Sendkeys("<Enter>")
        End If GetString(1, 35, 6) = "      "
Loop

	System.TimeoutValue = OldSystemTimeout
End Sub
