a simple Xlate issue with IF clause…

[Hyo-Chan Lee]

Can anyone help me with folllowing issue:

a simple xlate setting: If PD1-4 is not null then put a FCSER lookup table name on the PD1-13 otherwise do nothing.  Also if PV1-7 is not null, put a FCSER table name on the PV1-13  otherwise do nothing.

Try using “ne” instead of “!=”, since Tcl defaults to string comparisons.  Also, the proper reference for NULL is “@null” (lower case) in translations.  See if that does it.

Hyo-Chan,

I think there are a couple of issues.  First, use the string ‘ne’ compare operator rather than the numeric !=  Also, the temp variable should be @null rather than @NULL (right click in the tool while in the ACTION window to get the drop-down list of available temp variables).

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

I’ve modified and it’s working now.

Thank you both of you.
