Hey Stan,
Thanks for the examples.
Well I thought I was reasonably clear in my first post but perhaps not. What I wanted was for you to return the value of varName starting with the text value "varName".
set theVariable to path to home folder set anotherVariable to "theVariable"
Now I want to return the value of theVariable starting with anotherVariable if it's possible.
The outcome on my machine should be: alias "Odin:Users:stone:"
