Hi,
Another newbie question.
I want to create a variable with the current month - then create strings of the form 'start of current month {scm}' & 'end of current month {ecm}' [eg.1999+{var}+01] and [ 01/02/1999 - for the legend ].  Then I want to pass this string to a workspace file.
The idea is to recreate a thematic map when the workspace is loaded; such that the range is rebuilt with the current month - the relevant portions of the workspace file is thus:-
shade 3 with Invoice ranges apply all use color Brush (2,16711680,16777215) 
  19950201: 19990201{scm} Brush (2,12632256,16777215) ,
  19990201{scm}: 19990301{ecm} Brush (2,16711680,16777215) 
  default Brush (2,16777215,16777215)

set legend 
  layer 2 
    display on 
    shades on 
    symbols off 
    lines off 
    count on 
    title "POLYGONS by Invoice" Font ("Helvetica",37,11,0)
    subtitle "" Font ("Geneva",0,9,0)
    ascending off 
    ranges Font ("Geneva",0,9,0)
      "all others" display off ,
      "Previously Invoiced" display on ,
      "01/02/1999 {scm} to 01/03/1999 {ecm}" display on


is this sensible? any suggestions?  Thanks in advance

Regards,
Martyn
