[nfbcs] quick question on strings

[Jorge Paez]

Hi.
Thank you everyone for your suggestions.
Just wanted to let you all know I was able to fix the code finally, by
eliminating the second get in the alert portion of the code and fixing
some punctuation errors with the quotes and camas.
Here's the way it ended up.


void main()
{
string get; string my_name="Amy";

alert("Hello", "I am " + my_name+  ",a BGT script!");
}



Thanks.


Jorge
