Type Mismatch

[Robert Daggar]

I am trying to compare a variable to the current hour and see if the variable is <= to it. However, I cannot force the variable type to become a numeric and get a "Type Mismatch" error whatever I try.I have set the variable, loaded a value from a registry parameter that is numeric, setup the variable in basic as a byte field and used it - but nothing works!I am sure this is simple as I have have used numbers at other times, but I don't know how to get this variable to act as a numeric variable.

Can you send the task and log file with the error message?

This works, maybe you made some errors.
