I think you want to say RESULT = CALCULATE(ATTRIBUTE) Since {} is for a literal attribute name only. -----Original Message----- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [ mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of charles_shaf...@ntn-bower.com Sent: Thursday, August 15, 2013 4:35 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] @RECORD VARIABLES I am attempting to pass a variable into a SUBROUTINE and use it to access the data through the dictionary name. SUBROUTINE fieldLookup(....., ATTRIBUTE, ....) . . . READ @RECORD FROM F.FILE, @ID THEN RESULT = {ATTRIBUTE} END ELSE RESULT = "" END The part that isn't working is the RESULT = {ATTRIBUTE} As written here it is looking for a dictionary attribute named ATTRIBUTE. I tried forcing it to evaluate the variable ATTRIBUTE to the value in ATTRIBUTE by putting it in parenthesis, but it complained that it was expecting a variable when it was compiling. Is there a way to use a variable in the curly braces so that I can make this a generic subroutine?
