The basic interpreters parser is not that sophisticated. Your code needed spaces between each part of the let command.
You can also do it like so
Code: Select allbla = "Some text " & "Some more text"
Code: Select allcls
setupemail mail.smtp2go.com 2525 ?????@yahoo.com ???????
button "Send Email" [SendEmail]
button "Exit " [TestExit]
wait
[SendEmail]
let body = 25
email 0123456789@vtext.com ????@yahoo.com testSubject body
wait
[TestExit]
end

Ok I think I was assigning the "body" variable wrong.
I tried ...
Code: Select alllet body = "the temperature is 52 degrees"
and it worked!!
So please tell me how to combine several variables along with static text to create a sentence.
something like ...
Code: Select allbody = "the temperature is " + tempval + "degrees, at local time" + hour + ":" + min
to end up with
"the temperature is 27 degrees, at local time 11:30"although I am sure that is wrong but that is a big question for me is how to combine variables and static text.

Unfortunately at the moment it can only operate on 2 things at time. this is the same for all of the math and string commands. To make a longer string you might do some like the following.
Code: Select allbody = "the temperature is " & tempval
body = body & "degrees, at local time"
body = body & hour
body = body & ":"
body = body & min

That is awesome.
I think i asked my second question before you replied...
I'll give your guidance a try.
This espbasic is lightyears ahead of lua or any other code I have tried to use to get a little IOT sensor up and running! In terms of stability, ease of understanding, functionality, etc.
I just went back to your web site and made a donation.
and would encourage others to do the same if they are getting working results (or just having fun)!
I wish I could have entered a comment along with the donation
thanks so much!
