what is it about data types of local variables?

[severin]

Hey there!
I'm trying hard to access the booleans, whose refnums got stored into an array. As the example show, everything's fine unless I start using local variables: I can access the data in the topmost FOR loop. As soon as variables come into play, it seems as if I have to explicitly typecast the data. Is it just me? There has to be a less complicated way... can anybody give me a hint?

Kind regards,
Severin

Hi Severin,

The output from that property node is of variant data type. You can convert it to boolean by using the Variant to Data VI. See attached example
