Hi,
this is with Winbatch 2000c, running in a Windows 7 environment.
At a first glance the error message I am getting is pretty neat :
3067: Function Syntax : Opening parenthesis missing
the problem is that I cannot see what is wrong in my code. I somehow cut&paste from the fileread example from the Winbatch documentation.
here is an excerpt :
if FileExist(".failed") == @TRUE then
fi = FileOpen(".failed", "READ")
message = fileread(fi)
display(2,'error','%message%')
...
endif
the error message is pointing at the fileread line .
thanks for your help,
M. Raskin.
Message is a function name and can't be used as a variable. It is complaining because it is expecting parenthesis and parameters for the message() function.

Indeed!!!
thanks, I did not notice this :(.
Very good :) and sorry for this rather basic question but I was wrongly focusing on the fileread function ...
