Reading a Value from a .txt file and display in operator comment

[acgarcia]

Having some trouble figuring this out. I have a .txt file with a number 1-9 in it and I want PcDmis to read the file, read the number and use it an an assignment V2. If the number is greater than 5 go to a operator comment and if its not true, go to another operator comment.

The code works but my if_goto isn't working. Also when I highlight over the variables, my cursor shows 0 (zero). So if the value is 6 it should say display the true operator comment and if its 4 it should display the not true operator comment but it always says true even though the number is less than 5.

            ASSIGN/DATA1="C:\USERS\RENEGADE PRECISION\DESKTOP\TEST REPORTS\TEST.TXT"
FPTR       =FILE/OPEN,DATA1,READ
V1         =FILE/READ_BLOCK,FPTR,2
            FILE/CLOSE,FPTR,KEEP
            ASSIGN/V2=V1
            COMMENT/OPER,NO,FULL SCREEN=NO,AUTO-CONTINUE=NO,
            "value is "+V2[COLOR=#0000FF]<------op comment pops up with the correct value in the .txt file. I enter the value and save it manually in the file so this part works.[/COLOR]
            IF_GOTO/V2>5,GOTO = TRUE
TRUE       =LABEL/
            COMMENT/OPER,NO,FULL SCREEN=NO,AUTO-CONTINUE=NO,
            true
            GOTO/END
NOT_TRUE   =LABEL/
            COMMENT/OPER,NO,FULL SCREEN=NO,AUTO-CONTINUE=NO,
            not true
END        =LABEL/

Code-->

I would do this

ASSIGN/V2=V1
            ASSIGN/V1=C1.INPUT
            IF/V1>=5
              GOTO/TRUE
            END_IF/
            ELSE/
              GOTO/NOT_TRUE
            END_ELSE/
TRUE       =LABEL/
            COMMENT/OPER,NO,FULL SCREEN=NO,AUTO-CONTINUE=NO,
            It is true!
NOT_TRUE   =LABEL/
            COMMENT/OPER,NO,FULL SCREEN=NO,AUTO-CONTINUE=NO,
            It is NOT true!

Hghlighting and seeing variable-->
Is usually incorrect. Execute the program and type your number and run it offline to troubleshoot

DAN_M , yes your code works but I need the input to come from a .txt file. txt file contains any number between 1-9

It's probably seeing V2 as a string and not a number, perhaps if there's a space or something or a second empty line in the text file.

Try
ASSIGN/V2=INT(V1)

NinjaBadger , that worked. Thanks for the help.

I would try this, depends on how the file is written, maybe with NinjaBadger solution in addition :

FPTR       =FILE/OPEN,C:\USERS\RENEGADE PRECISION\DESKTOP\TEST REPORTS\TEST.TXT,READ
V1         =FILE/READLINE,FPTR,{V2}
            FILE/CLOSE,FPTR,KEEP
            IF_GOTO/V2<6,GOTO = NOT_TRUE
TRUE       =LABEL/
            COMMENT/OPER,NO,FULL SCREEN=NO,AUTO-CONTINUE=NO,
            true
            GOTO/END
NOT_TRUE   =LABEL/
            COMMENT/OPER,NO,FULL SCREEN=NO,AUTO-CONTINUE=NO,
            not true
END        =LABEL/
