  • I'm getting syntax errors left and right. Very strange ones... anyone else?

  • Yep, nothing but syntax errors. I notice some odd single quotes at points by themselves then I have an undefined variable Mark not preceeded by an "@" symbol.

    Mark should be a table column so obviously the table did not successfully define. The question is why?

    What syntax errors are you getting?

    I have incorporated some logic that can only be used in 2005, are you on SQL 2005?

  • Something happened to the code when I posted it on the site.

    This code works:

  • It seems when I posted using the web tool, the spacing for the code was altered, among other things. :angry:

    Does anyone know why this is?

    Thanks.

  • Yes, this code does compile. Thanks.

  • Strange that, Luckily I use UltraEdit and it sorted the extra LF's and CR's out quickly. How did all those "??" get in there though?

  • The code has on the main page has been corrected. There was a problem with the code submittion tool that is used to publish

    script code. Somehow the code submittion tool treated my tabs as line breaks and added extra spaces. I would say that the code submittion tool is sometimes flaky :hehe:.

  • Interesting concept - thanks. I liked the MindSweeper game that was posted also.

    I'll have to review the logic of how the usp selects its position. I played four times and won all four times - you know that's not happening against a person! 😉
