Last Operation Result returns blank

I have a master VBA script that loops through a spreadsheet header row to get the name of the keyword script that I want to run next, then feeds that name from the header as a variable to run that script.  I am now trying to get the result of that keyword test, pass, warning or fail, and write that back to the spreadsheet in the row below the header.  I know how to write back to the spreadsheet but what I have a problem with is getting a value for the result, it is always returning blank so it always goes to the else even though the keyword test passed.

 

I have tried the following that I found in other topics, but always blank.  Is there something I am missing?

 

LastResult = Eval("KeywordTests." + testCaseName + ".Run")

If (LastResult = True) Then

Call Log.Message("Pass", "")

Else

Call Log.Message("Fail", "")

End If

 

 

 

If Eval("KeywordTests." + testCaseName + ".Run") Then

Log.Message "Test returned True"

Else

Log.Message "Test returned False"

End If

 

I have also tried this through just a simple keyword test, but still returns blank.

    Could you post a couple of scripts that are supposed to return a value?

      Here is ideally the script that I would use, but when it gets to the if Eval.... to get the results from running the script, the script runs, but it always goes to the else even though the script that was called passed. 

      Sub testSuiteRun(scriptRunType, customerType, runComponentArea)
  
  Dim excelApplication, projectPath
  Dim sheetName
  
  'Open and set Excel objects, spreadsheet, sheet, row count and column count
  Set excelApplication = Sys.OleObject("Excel.Application")
  projectPath = Project.Path
  Set book = excelApplication.Workbooks.Open(projectPath & "Test Data\TC_Script_Run.xlsx")
  sheetName = runComponentArea
  Set sheet = book.Sheets(sheetName)
  rowCount = sheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
  colCount = sheet.UsedRange.Columns.Count  
  tcCount = 1
  
  excelApplication.DisplayAlerts = False
  'Loop through rows of spreadsheet ignoring the header row
  For r = 2 To rowCount
    
    'check if active row = run type and customer type 
    If (sheet.Cells(r, 1) = scriptRunType And sheet.Cells(r, 2) = customerType) Then
      
      'Loop through component script columns     
      For c = 4 To colCount
        
        'Set test case name to the header cell (row 1) for active column and the run indicator for active column and row
        testCaseName = VarToString(sheet.Cells(1, c)) 
        runInd = VarToString(sheet.Cells(r, c)) 
         
        'Check if test case name is not blank for active col to eliminate extra blank columns   
        If testCaseName <> "" Then
          
          'check if run indicator is Y and if so then call that component script   
          If runInd = "Y" Then
                               
		If Eval("KeywordTests." + testCaseName + ".Run") Then

			sheet.Cells(r, c) = "P"

		Else

			sheet.Cells(r, c) = "F"

		End If
          
                     
            book.Save
                         
          End If
        
        End If
    
      Next
  
    End If
    
  Next

  'quit excel
  excelApplication.Quit
  excelApplication.DisplayAlerts = True

End Sub

       

      I have also tried a very simple one like the following and what is returned to the log is blank.

      Sub Test_Run_JG()
  Dim Var1, LastResult
  Var1 = ""
   'Set LastResult = KeywordTests.Global_Login.Run
  LastResult = KeywordTests.Global_Login.Run
  Var1 = LastResult
  'Posts an information message to the test log.
  Call Log.Message(Var1, "")
End Sub
