How can access a variable defined in other section

[jrbolsa]

Hello again,

If I define a variable in the Initialize() section, like
string path = @"c:\jrbolsa\xxx.txt"

How can I use it in the OnBarUpdate() section?

Do you have any simple sample ? :-)

regards,
jr.

jrbolsa,

You should not define it in the Initialize(). Do it in the Variables region of your code.

I can't. Because the real variable is:
string path = @"c:\jrbolsa\ntcot\"+spliti[0]+".txt";
I must obtain that "spliti[0]" string from another variable (a txt file) and I must read that file (all the file) in order to obtain the first part of the line.

Do it in OnBarUpdate() then. You should not do anything like this in Initialize().

I'll try that but in that case it will be done for each bar. Am i right?

You can filter it if you don't want it to do it every bar.

if (CurrentBar == 0)
// do something

Resolved although it does what i thought. And it lasts too long.
But great idea!!. Thanks a lot.
