Hi the short answer is no
but you can use the INCLUDE [ tcl script .. ] syntax instead everything you print to stdout with puts is includede in tha mapping file, so what you have to do is printing MACRO directives into your mapping file, and you can then use teh MACRO values wherever you like I had a disscusion with MARK a few weeks ago about this subject, look at this for some more see messagede #13332 Peter >From: "dauzat1932" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: [fme] Problem passing variable from a FME_BEGIN_TCL to the mapping >translation >Date: Mon, 26 Feb 2007 19:55:48 -0000 > > >Hi, > >Is there a way to pass a variable defined in the FME_BEGIN_TCL into >the mapping ? > >I am curently having problem with that.
