Creating loops with different variables

[mjamei]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a program that works out a simple quarter on quarter change on a number of variables however I can't get the loop function to work fo some reason.

Here's the code:
for %v NEVI NEVJ NEVK NEVL
smpl 1990:01 2010:04
delete p%v
genr p%v = 100*(%v/%v(-1))-1)
next

I've only included a couple of variables here to demonstrate but it keeps coming back with an error message so I'm assuming I've made a mistake in the coding (or more than one mistake! :/)

Thanks in advance

You have to use {} around %v.
for example: p{%v}

Brilliant, works fine.

Thanks
