What version of TestComplete are you using?

 

Try posting each variable out to the test log and see if it actually has the value that you expect.

      Changing the project variables to be defined as "Temporary Variables" allows the VBscript to access them within the project!

      probably there is something else I need to do to reference the variables when they are defined as "Persistent Variables" - damned if I know what though! But, have a workaround now.

       

      cheers
