Thanks Hans!
              That wolud help me a lot.Also thanks for the reference u 
mentioned.I'll try it.

Now one last thing :

 Is there a way of having variable arrays whose contents can be used 
as "suffixes"?

 something like ,

a[0]:= "A" ;
a[1]:= "B" ;
a[2]:= "C" ;   %a variable array "a[]"
there are other three "pair" variables : T.A,T.B,T.C;

so now I want to have ,

i := 0;
T.a[i] = blahblah();
so here I want to use the contents of "a[]" as suffix of variable " T 
" .

I don't know what kind of data type to use for "a[]".
I tried a[] as string type and used it with
 forsuffixes $=a[0],a[1],a[2]:
   .....
 endfor;
but this does not work.
So, can u please help me out here?
thanx in advance.
Vinuth.

You could use 'scantokens':

	string a[];

        a 1 := "A";
        a 2 := "B";
        a 3 := "C";
        T A := 11;
        T B := 12;
        T C := 13;
        for i = 1 upto 3:
                show (T scantokens a [i]);
        endfor;
	end

This produces the output

        >>11
        >>12
        >>13
The idea is to store the suffixes as strings, and then use 'scantokens' 
to extract them.

Best wishes,

Jonathan
