Would it be possible to evaluate a string variable as a (k or i rate) variable ? I tried with strtod, but it does not work that way (come to think of it, I can't get strtod to work at all, or I do not know how it should work) best, Oeyvind example: iTest = 13.0 ; alternative 1 Stest strcpy "iTest" iEvaluate strtod Stest ; alternative 2 strset iTest, "iTest" iEvaluate strtod "iTest" print iEvaluate
