DropWild Functions

Keywords:   dropwild

Question:

For some reason, DropWild has never worked for me. The doucmentation says the following example SHOULD work:

	VarX="Test"
	VarY="Message"
	Message(VarX,VarY)
	DropWild(Var*)

If I read the documentation ANOTHER way (it seems to be ambiguous), the DROPWILD should really be Drop() with an asterisk inside the parenthesis.

No matter which method I use, I get a consistent error message:

	"3052: Uninitialized variable or undefined function"

Does this function really exist? If so, what is the correct syntax?

Answer:

It needs quotes ...as opposed to DROP which does not. Try..

	VarX="Test
	VarY="Message"
	Message(VarX,VarY)
	DropWild("Var*")
