Friends, Need Help!!!!!!!

Im trying IMPORT variable contents from a cluster table VARI. I can do a IMPORT without issues when I use exact name of the variable but I have issues with dynamic variable selection. Pls see code below.

loop at objects.

assign objects-name to <fs>.

IMPORT <fs> to tmp_var from database vari(va) id st_key.

endloop.

I do not get any value to tmp_var. Need help!

thanks

Try this.

loop at objects.
IMPORT (objects-name) to tmp_var from database vari(va) id st_key.
endloop.

Does it work?

Rich,

No Luck...I tried this but its a syntax error as "(" cannot be used as part of name.
