Text Entry Box advanced action issue

[SlimahID]

Hi I have a text entry box on slide 3, I am using the adobe captivate guide to add advanced actions to force the user to enter a response into the box. However, it is saying my script is incomplete. Anyone see my error? Is it the "1"?

Use the Enter key to confirm the literal 1 as entry. It is similar to the fields in an Excel spreadsheet. As long as the exclamation mark has not been replaced by a green checkmark, the command is considered incomplete.

Thanks @Lilybiri I did press enter, but now I see from @E-Learning Guy that I did choose variable from the drop down list instead of choosing literal. Once I changed it to literal the script was complete.

Further to Lilybiri's response, I'm wondering if you accidentally selected "variable" from the dropdown instead of "literal" and entered 1, as Captivate wouldn't recognize that as a variable unless you actually created a variable called "1."

Yes, unkowningly, I selected "variable", but you're right there is no variable titled "1" so I had to change it to literal so it would know I mean the number one. Now it accepted the script.

To back up, I created this TEB and script on a blank slide, am I to now copy and paste it on the previous slide which is where I want the user to input the information into the TEB? Or no leave it here and the action will execute?
