variable names in list


  • Subject: variable names in list
  • From: Dave Bevis <email@hidden>

I have created several lists that I want to search a Filemaker database for the values in the list. I have also created a master list that contains the names of each list. I want to use this master list in a repeat loop that calls each item the master list and then performs a repeat loop on the items in that list.

When I reference an item in the master list, it returns a string which is the name of a list. I want to reference that as a list variable name but I can't figure out how. When I try to count the items in the list it returns the count of characters in the string.

Is there a way to have a list of variable names and when you assign that list item to a variable it can reference the variable?

Dave
