Sorry, I meant a variable pointer (for example: var myVar;), not the number itself.

so you want to get the real script-name of the variable as string?
engine_getvarinfo()
like this???

My version of A7 doesn't support engine_getvarinfo(). It does recognize engine_getvar() though. I tried:

...but the string pointer does not contain a string.

I'm wondering if this is what I want though. Just to be sure that you understand.
I want to change the 4 in var myVar = 4; to a string, so that I can show it on screen. When the variable changes, it will update on screen at runtime.

Isn't there some simple code like str(myVar), as found in python, that converts the variable to a string?

hey
str_for_num(STRING*, var) ?

Hey! It worked!

GorNaKosh had given that to me before, and I didn't get it work. I guess I had complicated things.

Thanks for all your help. I can finally move on. Thanks
