Alias in Alias?
 
sorry, i'm really a noob...

I been trying to get my alias to run right:

I have the following mapped to my alias "CK"

%if(@Status=0, Alias1, Alias2)

but it doesn't expand Alias1 and Alias2, it just sends "Alias1" and "Alias2" command literally..

what am i doing wrong?

You are using the function %if (which doesn't expand) instead of the command #IF

#IF (@Status=0) {Alias1} {Alias2}

You could wrap the function in an #EXEC command to force it to expand, but that is not the preferred methodology.

#EXEC {%if(@Status=0, Alias1, Alias2)}

That should work, but as i said the regular #IF command should do the same thing.
