<QUOTE>
I'm trying to add a line of data to a variable then returning the answer in a message. For example:



Y='

For X=1 To 10

If @record=' Then  

Y=Y + 'Test'

End

Next X

Call Msg(Y,'A','','')

I know that this doesn't work. Could someone help me with the code to have a result such as Y=Test':@VM:'Test':@VM:etc

Thanks,



Mark

Try



Y='

For X=1 To 10

  If @record=' Then 

    y=Test'

  End

Next X



Call Msg(Y,'A','','')





Although it may not display correctly in  MSG

<QUOTE>Your line of code



Y=Y + 'Test'



will not resolve because 'Test' is non-numeric. Use 

Y=Y : 'Test'

or if Y is assigned  

Y := 'Test'



Someone's been using VB or Delphi too often we suspect .
