$ASKn$ values are assigned by collecting
user input in response to an Ask command. There are nine variables,
$ASK1$ through $ASK9$.
For example:
ASK3: "", prompt="Enter
your serial number:"
IF $ASK3$ <>
"1B456Q9"
EXITMESSAGE
Invalid serial number -
installation terminated
EXIT
ENDIF
The user is prompted to enter a serial
number and the response is stored in the variable $ASK3$. The IF
statement compares the user's value to 1B456Q9. If it isn't the
same, the exit message appears and the installation ends.
Refer to the EXITMESSAGE/EXIT command for usage
information. The values stored in the $ASKn$ variables are strings
and are compared alphabetically. For example, 99 is considered
larger than 100 because the first character 9 is larger than the
first character 1.
