I have been working with tim for a little while on his project and
we have run into this problem more than once. I have not been able
to find out why. It's getting a little frustrating. Confused

Strange thing! Info a bit scarce though..

What happens if you rename the variables which trigger an error?
Do you both (Chris & tim) get the same error?
Is the error stable?
Is it triggered in debug mode as well as in compiled scripts?

I personally have not had the error. It is only on tim's computer. I
have tried to repeat the error, but, have had no success. I think
tim only gets the error when he runs a compiled version of the script.

Hmmm. Sounds like this error is going to be hard to track down.

What happens if tim renames the variable? And is the VDS runtime DLL placed in his system path the same as the one belonging to his version
of VDS?

I have tried to rename a variable that did it for me and it did not
work. Good question about the dll. Tim will have to check that.

I had a problem that looks like that.
I copied a script from a site into the VDS edit box and tried to run it. All other commands worked, but he gived an error at the variable line.
The variable name coloured red, so I thought everthing was allright...
But I still got that irritating error (don't know which errortype).

I fixed it by the spaces before the command.
Just try it out! Perhaps it will work Wink

Thanks, I'll try that.

I have had the same problem and the basic characteristica was that all scripts used 120+ long variables and about the max of the short variables and deleting a couple of those variables fixed the problem for all scripts. Seems like VDS (v. 3.51) cannot a use that many variables in a script
