Hey, mister guru...

Hi,

I come from the Clipper programming.
In Clipper you could do something like that:

myMacro := "myVar" + "1"

now myMacro is equal to "myVar1"
if I use it in the code like this:

for &(myMacro)=1 to 20
..
next

It will be the same as if i did this:

for myVar1 = 1 to 20
..
next

Except that at run time I can pass any variable
name into that loop.

My question is, how to do the same thing in VB?

Thanx!

I don't think you can. The only chance you have would be the Eval() function.

I'm afraid that is a limitation of VB. I used that type of programming in the original
FoxPro 2.0 - I sadly miss that feature.
