    Hi,

     

    It is my guess that you pass string as the value of myRegion input parameter in both cases.

    I.e. you call  ValidateRegion1() function like this:  ValidateRegion1('region1', ...)

    If my guess is correct, then you should use eval() or evaluate() function depending on what is provided by your script language:

    eval('Regions.' + myRegion + '.Check(onscreenObj, transparentParam, mouseParam, pixelTolParam, colorTolParam, maskParam)');

    and

    Regions.Compare(eval(myRegion), onscreenObj, transparentParam, mouseParam, pixelTolParam, colorTolParam, maskParam);

     

    Does this help?

    The eval() function works perfectly! That is exactly what I needed. Thanks!

     

    Yes, you are correct that I was passing string as the value of myRegion input parameter in both cases.
