I've run into a slight problem writing MapBasic code. In Set Map, I'm trying to use variables for the Position and Offset portions of the Label clause. A sample of this code is below. The intent of this piece of code is to extract values (pertaining to labeling) from a reference table, which are then stored into variables. Everything had worked just fine until I attempted to incorporate variables for label offset values, specifically direction (Left, Right, Center, Above, Below) and offset. For whatever reason, the MapBasic compiler gives me an error statement, specifically "Missing "=" in assignment to S_OFFSET_DIR". The line it's calling an error on is "Layer S_OPEN_NAME Display Graphic Label Line None Position S_OFFSET_DIR.". If I substitute a "normal" value (like "left") for S_OFFSET_DIR, then the error statement is "Missing "=" in assignment to I_OFFSET_DIS" instead. BTW, S_OFFSET_DIR is declared as a string variable, and I_OFFSER_DIS is an integer. Also, all of the other variables in the label clause (such as S_LABEL, S_LABEL_FONT.) had worked just fine. Anyone have a guess as to what the problem might be? Hope all is well with you all, and that everyone has a great New Year.
