Hi, I'm having trouble with the dbObjectExist function. The help files say "This command will return a one if the specified 3D object exists, otherwise zero will be returned." exactly the same as the DBP version does which I'm used to for the past 4 years.

However, its returning a huge random number every time its called, for reasons I don't know about. If someone could enlighten me as to why this happens I'd be greatful, thanks.

Could you put your break-point on the next line(67), putting the break there wont give you the returned value of dbObjectExist().

The yellow arrow points to the line that is going to be executed next, so line 66 has not been executed yet, and therefore 'test' has not been initialized yet, so it's a random number.
