Let me try that again. A colon was lost! or MS Outlook messed with my
incoming message. I can't tell:

Here's some sample code for you.

 APP_NAME : SN0001;    { Name of DMC application }
 CNTDWN   : SN0009;    { AOA reference for CNTDWN }

...
 { This stores the destination tag as a string into CNTDWN}

 CNTDWN := APP_NAME,":DMCOP.CNTDWN";

 { This clears the count down timer. Note the use of : and ' }
 { In case you can't see it, the line reads 'colon''single quote''variable
name''colon''equal''zero' }

 :'CNTDWN' := 0;

You can use string variables rather than parameters. I like to use the
parameters as a debugging aid.

Hope this helps.

                Subject:        Variable selection in a sequence

                Hi All, (I think this is the standard opening)

                I will introduce myself first, I am a DCS engineer working
for 2
        years with
                Foxboro IA, in a small wet country.

                I am following this list since I started with Foxboro IA and
I saw
        many
                problems solved. Now here is my problem (perhaps its a
stupid one,
        but I'm
                breaking my wooden shoe on it).

                I want to make a variable selection in a sequence, its
written in
        SFC.

                First I made a macro called:
                PUMP1 :TEST:GDEV1.AUTDSR
                PUMP2 :TEST:GDEV2.AUTDSR

                Then I made a variable called:
                PUMP and attached to BOOL

                In the first selection I want
                PUMP := PUMP1;
                the following step:
                PUMP := TRUE; 


                and when I return to the beginning I perhaps want PUMP
select to:
                PUMP := PUMP2;
                the following step:
                PUMP := TRUE;

                But what I tried, it didn't work, has someone got a solution
?? This
        will be
                written for a selection of 32 posibilties 


                With Kind Regards,
                Cor-Jan Baltus
