String used in Draw.Text or Fixed.Text

[GeorgeW]

Hello,
Can I set up a string to have different values based on certain conditions, and then include that string in a Draw.Text or FixedText? I have tried it and the part of the code below compiles, but when I include "oBOS220" in the FixedText code I get errors. Is there a particular way that it should be included in FixedText?

Thank you.

string oBOS220;
			if(close0 < close1 && AvgBase[0] > (AvgBase[1] + 1.5*TickSize))
			{oBOS220 = "OB";}
			else if(close0 > close1 && AvgBase[0] < (AvgBase[1] - 1.5*TickSize))
			{oBOS220 = "OS";}

Hello GeorgeW,

Thank you for your note.

If you assign a value to oBOS220 before the if statements, do you get the result you'd like?

For example,

string oBOS220 = "Blah";

I look forward to your reply.

Thank you AlanP, that has worked.
