After I posted, I did a few tests... it does not work. As far as I know, RPG does not support this either. I remember way back in college (ok, 20 years ago, before there was any MIS or computer related degrees), this was a nifty feature of PASCAL. Every once in a while I have had the need in RPG. Oh well, I guess I will find a work around, the code will not be nearly as elegant. cjg Carl J.

One thing you can do is change the value of a variable whose name is held in another variable (not quite the same thing)...
