Artur:
I think this is a problem with the way in that 'loop foreach' treats
its arguments: probably first if they are two or more arguments all of
them are treated as strings, for a unique argument it checks if it is a
list or a string and act different in each case. A solution may be:
open denmark
list ttt1 = LRM IBO
list ttt2 = IDE LRY
loop j=1..2
list x=ttt$j
loop foreach i x
sprintf astr "%11s", "$i"
print astr
endloop
endloop
