By the way, if you use CVS Data Set you don't also need User Defined
Variables - unless you want to define some diifferent variables.
The CSV Data Set reads the file, and sets the contents of the
variables accordingly.
[Assuming it finds the file!]
You can then refer to the variables using the syntax:
${VARNAME}
where VARNAME is the name used on the CSV Data Set element.
