HSEROUT using STR modifier - length parameter as variable not working

[flotulopex]

Hi there,

I'm using HSEROUT with the STR modifier and I can't find the way to set the number of characters "\n" in a variable instead.

While this works:

HSEROUT [STR BalBuffer\40,26,13]

...this doesn't:

BalCount VAR BYTE
BalCount = 40
HSEROUT [STR BalBuffer\BalCount,26,13]

It is to mention that it does compile without error in both cases.

I didn't try this one, but according to some other post (from Bruce in 2005), DEBUG/DEBUGIN seem to accept a variable for the charater value.

Is this a limitation for the STR modifier (= it has to be a number) in HSEROUT or is there a way to make it work with a variable?
