Reading SecureCRT's built-in help documentation, one can see that the return value from a call to the
WaitForStrings() method is
not a string. Instead, the return value is the *index* of the matched string provided as an parameter when you made the function call.
In other words, if your code looks like this...
Code:
result = crt.Screen.WaitForStrings("17.5","19.02", 4)
...and what appears on your screen is a "19.02", the documentation makes clear that the expected return value is exactly what you are seeing:
2
The value 2 reflects the 2nd string argument you provided to the
WaitForStrings("17.5", "19.02", etc.) method is the string that was matched/found on the screen (or, if you sent an array of strings, the 2nd element of that array).
