Hi Sentil,
You need to understand the difference between EQUATEs and variable
names on one hand and strings on the other. If you look at what's in
all of those I_F.{filename} included code blocks, you'll see a whole
lot of EQU statements such as EQU EB.HOL.MTH.01.TABLE TO 1. This
allows the expression EB.HOL.MTH.01.TABLE to be used where you might
otherwise use the numeric value 1. So... val<EB.HOL.MTH.01.TABLE> is a
valid expression, and is the same as val<1>. Where you're going wrong
is in trying to use concatenation to form a variable or equate name.
What you'll always end up with when you do a concatenation is a string
(not a variable name or equate name) - and you can't use a string as a
field (or attribute) mark count. For example, val<1> is perfectly ok
but val<"abc"> isn't. Also, amc="abc"; myval=val<amc> will fail. If,
however, you have abc=1 or equ abc to 1 beforehand then you can use
val<abc>.
I hope this helps.
Mike.
