HELP FAST IF POSSIBLE!

Is there a function in VB that will evaluate an expression and return a result?

Example (1=1) = True

[parksie]

Try using Eval, which is in the Scripting Host (look under Project->References).

[Lafor]

with VB7.0 will come

C/C++ Style Boolean Short-circuiting on “if then” statements

If Not (x Is Nothing) And (x.Prop = 5) Then
The above will now work. In VB6 you had to write :
If Not (x Is Nothing) Then
If (x.Prop = 5) Then

soon

Hang in there, Angela!

Parksie,

Trying to use Eval function. I can't find the Scripting Host under Project References. Is that the exact name of the reference? If so, I haven't got it - any tips on how I can get it?

Cheers

Nick

Under components: Microsoft Script Control
I think this gets installed with a certain version of interner explorer.

I don't see the problem?

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim b As Boolean
b = (1 = 1)
MsgBox b
End Sub

I don't seem to have the Microsoft Script Control installed, but I have installed IE3, 4 and 5!

Do you have the filename for the DLL? maybe it's buried somewhere on my system.

Thanks

Nick
