The Best Solution

[skimask]

for temp = 0 to 7
if (ML_Value[temp] <= $5A) or (ML_Value[temp] => $82) then Summe_Alarm.temp = 1
if (ML_Value[temp] > $5A) and (ML_Value[temp] < $82) then Summe_Alarm.temp = 0
next temp

Yup but this should return a syntax or modifier error. Summe_alarm.0[temp]=x should cure the problem

[skimask]

Summe_alarm.0[temp]=x

DOH! I just woke up, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

Thank you for the very good solution !
Another Question :-)
Why I need Zero for : Summe_Alarm.0[Temp] and why not just
Summe_Alarm.[Temp] ?
I know that I receive a syntax but I dont understand what is the reason for use Zero !

Thank you Mister.

I think your original code would work marginally faster. However, it would also consume much more code space. So that's the compromise I guess. Out of interest, (DO's & Whiles) are significantly much faster than (For Nexts) in Visual Basic.
