First letter of variable name must indicate its type

Scroll Prev Up Next More

This compiler error will occur if a variable declared in the var, input or global sections does not begin with either of the following (lowercase) letters: s, n, b.

 

Often this mistake simply comes from writing the variable name without the prefix. For example:

var
    CurrentDate
begin

The macro compiler relies on the first letter of each variable to determine its type.
