I'm writing in Clipper . I'm developing a small application to work on a hand held computer to interface with our main Fox app. Now Fox has a wonderful little thing called macro expansion, one which lacked to a degree in Clipper...

Here's what I need:

Command to macro expand this string...
'APPEND FROM "incoming.txt" DELIMITED WITH CHARACTER '+CHR(96)

Command to ME setting a variable...
ie: "lcline"+alltrim(str(i))+" = "+alltrim(str(i))

Command to ME saying a variable...
lccmnd = "lcline"+ALLTRIM(STR(i))
@ i,0 SAY &(lccmnd)

I've searched the books, and only found &(lcstring) as the usage.

Thanks,
Chris
