Passing Part Variables back and forth

I am having a helluva time trying to pull variables from the part program. The first time I pull a variable in this script, (Shown in blue) it works beautiful. The second time, pulling the same variable (shown in red), it pulls nothing! I have slowly changed the second call back to the exact text of the first, because nothing is working! Now it is identical except for the variable name the part variable is being assigned to and it still won't work! W T F! AngryAngryAngry

Dim Var
Dim Var2 As Object

If dblouttol > 0 Then 
   MsgBox "Part is BAD!" & Chr(10) & "Number of Dimensions Out of Tolerance:" & dblouttol & Chr(10) &"Features out of tolerance:" & Chr(10) & Msg ' Display the ID's that are out of tolerance
   [COLOR="Blue"]Set Var = objPART.GetVariableValue ("SUB_OUTTOLNUM")[/COLOR]        'Grabs the variable SUB_OUTTOLNUM from the subroutine program
   Var.stringvalue  = dblOutTol                                      'Sets variable As number of outtol dimensions. Change this To actual CMM Name/number
   Set Var2 = objPART.getvariablevalue ("SUB_ACCEPTREJECT")  'Grabs the variable Sub_ACCEPTREJECT from the subroutine program
   var2.stringvalue = "~~4 REJECTED"                                                                       'Sets variable As Accept, As part is good
                
End If  

objPART.SetVariableValue "SUB_OUTTOLNUM", Var                  'Passes the number of outtol dimensions back To the subroutine
objPART.SetVariableValue "SUB_ACCEPTREJECT", Var2           'Passes the Accept/Reject variable back To the subroutine


Dim Test1

[COLOR="Red"]Set Test1 = objpart.GetVariableValue ("SUB_OUTTOLNUM") [/COLOR]
msgbox Test1.stringvalue

  • I started fresh, with a totally new test program and script, and I cannot get the .GetVariableValue command to work. I can SET variables just fine using .setvariablevalue. I cannot GET them at all.

    The workaround right now is passing the variables into the script through the arguments thing, same as variables into a subroutine.

    I have no idea why this is happening.
