Posted: Wed Mar 20, 2013 1:21 pm
Hi,
I have a subroutine that does "wonderful" things. It's argument is a list of variables. Example:
I works nicely (for me).
Now a problem. Say I want to loop through the list "var1A var2A var3A var1B var2B var3B". Without the subroutine I could do it (a bit clumpsy, but ...) the following way:
or
But with many variables and "extensions" this becomes cumbersome.
My problem: How can I send something like "var1{%ext} var2{%ext} var3{%ext}" to the subroutine? I would love to do the following:
This, and variants thereof, does not work. Neither does (lots of variants):
The problem, as i understand it, is in the string-def.
Appreicate help.
