Warnings - Click these checkboxes to specify which warnings to display in the Build tab
of the Output Window, after compile operations. The warnings are described below:
Integer on non-arrays - This warning appears when the keyword INTEGER is
applied to a non-array type of variable. Doing this is not an error, because non-array
variables are already integers, but it is redundant.
Assignment of unlike types - This warning occurs when a variable or value of one
type is assigned to a variable of a different type. Here are some examples:
• Assigning a string literal, string expression, or array to a non-array variable.
• Assigning a non-array variable to an entire array.
• Assigning an integer array to a non-integer array.
