teststand lookup string with hook character

[maxmont]

Hi all,

I'd like to set a propertyobject  like that :

PropObj.SetValString("first.second[test].value", 1, ""value")

But I get an COMexception : A subscript is not valid for objects that are not arrays......

How can I use hook without TS believes that it's an array?

Thanks in advance for your help

Look at the SetValStringByOffset method:

Hope this helps,

Sorry, but I don't see the kink with my problem.

In fact I want to create a container with this name : "test[name]"

Brackets are illegal characters for variable names.

it's what I thought.

I replaced bracket by paenthesis.

Thanks
