Ok... I guess I'm still not understanding what is in each variable:

Is that a property, or a literal? What value is in .ProjectName (assuming that
is a variable?)
.ViewName, and .Label

Same questions...
Are you trying to build a new variable name? So, when you say you want to
append .ProjectName you mean the contents of that?
If I knew what was in each variable in addition to the final value you expect
in the variable, I could help you with more specific code.
