Sugestions please

test.kix is

$A=0
$A=$A+1
$B=2
$B=$B+$A
$B ?

I ran this command:
for %a in (k*.exe) do %a test.kix

so that your script would run on every version of KiX that I have...

The results

code:

---

C:\scripts>kix2kb1.exe test.kix
3
C:\scripts>kix2kb2.exe test.kix
3
C:\scripts>kix2kb2a.exe test.kix

ie

$a="$a" converts $a to a string.

$a=$a+10 will not add 10 to $a now, but will put "10" on the end of the string.

so if $a was 3, it becomes "3" and is now "310"

use VAL($a) to return to a number.

If you want to print $a IN a string you can:

"hello, $$a is now $a"

or

"hello, $$a is now " $a

Notice, there is no + anywhere there...
