Android Question Unexpected error "Expected non code block"

[jai]

While placing a Sleep(0) statement in an otherwise working code two error messages get triggered in the Log window-
Object reference not set to an instance of object
Expected non code block
The app cannot be compiled in this condition.

If Sleep(0) is remmed out the problem goes away-

I am exploring replacing DoEvents with Sleep(0) but can't get started because of this unexpected error.

Hard to say without seeing the code. Can you upload it? If not send it to erel@basic4ppc.com.

Note that Sleep(0) behavior is not identical to DoEvents. You do need to learn about resumable subs.

This is a bug related to this line:

s3=s1:If s3>4 Then s3=s3-4

It will work if you change it to:

s3=s1
If s3>4 Then s3=s3-4

That does it! Thanks much for your help.

Should multiple statements on a single line be always avoided or was there something peculiar about my statements?

In most cases you can use multiple statements, however they are not recommended.
