Trouble with assigning a string to an array

[JRL]

If I do:

Code: Select all

Let>counter=7
Let>user_%counter%=something

I get variable user_7 with a value of "something"

If I do:

Code: Select all

Let>counter=7
Let>user_%counter%={"something"}

I get a variable user_%counter% with a value of "something"

Is that correct? As long as "Something" has no value, should the two statements not be equivalent?

Your desribed anomaly happens here.
It seems the {} confuse MS parsing.
Here is how I circumvent the anoamly:
Let>i=7
Let>x={"something"}
Let>t%i%=%x%
MDL>t%i%
