Dynamically reading variable obect

[Legacy User]

Hello,

Hope this is an easy question ..

If I have a variable object as below:

https://us.v-cdn.net/5019921/uploads/editor/8l/sh6t04hydy8y.png" width="777">

and I want to declare and assign all the values in it to a variable e.g.

VAR1 = 'TEST'
VAR2 = 'TEST2'

Do I do something similar to:

:SET &HND#=PREP_PROCESS_VAR(DATABASE_MAINTENANCE)
:PROCESS &HND#
:   SET &VK# = GET_PROCESS_LINE(&HND#,1)
:   SET &VALUE# = GET_PROCESS_LINE(&HND#,2)
:   PRINT "&VK# &VALUE#"
:ENDPROCESS

If so how do I get it to resolve VAR1 to equal "TEST"

or is GENERATE_SCRIPT_VARS for this exact purpose?

Hope this makes sense?

Cheers,

Dan.

Not sure if I understood that correctly.

You hava a VARA object containing KEY & Value  -- OK
VAR1 = 'TEST'
VAR2 = 'TEST2'

Do you want the KEY (VAR1, VAR2) becoing a script Variable - e.g. &VAR1#, &VAR2#... ?
in this case GENERATE_SCRIPT_VARS would do the trick..

OR

Do you want to get the content of additional VARA object "TEST" and "TEST2" ?
