Not sure what this error means...

[Brian Alvarez]

 I am getting this error, but i do not understand it. It doesnt like a 45 that i dont see anywhere.  ?

 What could this error mean?


Note:
This is pseudo code that does nothing, and is purely for syntax testing, so, im not looking for alternatives.
I am also aware of the error in the parameter variable of PEEKS.

Hi Brian,

It means o2 is trying to dim a variable, but the type-name given (45) cannot be identified. So something in your code is generating a funny type-name.

[Brian Alvarez]

There is no 45 in my code... maybe something internal? I am guessing it is trying to create a temp variable for processing a statement, but is using an invalid character name for the variable name. Take a look at this smaller example that complains about a 16 (notice the non-printable character before the 16):

I bet that internally oxygen is trying to do something like:

Code: [Select]

?16 = _STR(oindex, byval 0)
During the part-by-part processing of the statement.
