Hi,
Can anyone help resolve the following. The following script does not work due to data$(ii) not being able to be used as winName in [winName]!wks.addcol(). You should see what I am trying to do in the script -- I have a series of datasets with the name a055sXXX where XXX is 001,002,003,etc and want to do some simple operation to all sets.
for (ii=1;ii<=100;ii++)
{
if (ii<10)
{
a055s0$(ii)!wks.addcol();
a055s00$(ii)_c=a055s00$(ii)_b/1.3E-3;
};
if (ii>=10 && ii<100)
{
a055s0$(ii)!wks.addcol();
a055s0$(ii)_c=a055s0$(ii)_b/1.3E-3;
};
if (ii>=100)
{
a055s$(ii)!wks.addcol();
a055s$(ii)_c=a055s$(ii)_b/1.3E-3;
};
}
Is it true that such substitution does not work? How can I correct this? Any additional simplification to the script possible?
Many thanks.

Hi jonni,
There was a topic very similar to this a few months ago but I can't find it now. As I recall, the solution was to use an intermediate string variable as shown below.
for (ii=1;ii<=100;ii++)
{
if (ii<10)
{
%A=a055s00$(ii);
%A!wks.addcol();
%A_c=%A_b/1.3E-3;
};
if (ii>=10 && ii<100)
{
%A=a055s0$(ii);
%A!wks.addcol();
%A_c=%A_b/1.3E-3;
};
if (ii>=100)
{
%A=a055s$(ii);
%A!wks.addcol();
%A_c=%A_b/1.3E-3;
};
}
Hope that helps.

Hi jonni,
this might be another solution for your task:
doc -e W { // scan all wks in project %H holds wks name;
if (%[%H,6]=="a055s") { // check if wks starts with your name;
%H!wks.addcol(); // add column;
%H_c=%H_b/1.3E-3; // do calculation;
};
};
hope this helps and simplifies...
Tilman.
