Generally bad code... What that supposed to do? Either it will return TabStrip3.Count or zero.
This would do exactly same thing: PUBLIC FUNCTION ScanTab(IdCaption AS Integer) AS Integer FOR a = 0 TO TabStrip3.Count - 1 IF TabStrip3[a].Caption = IdCaption THEN RETURN TabStrip3.Count ENDIF NEXT END Jussi 2010/4/13 Fabián Flores Vadell <fabianfloresvad...@gmail.com>: >> No STATIC with CONST.
