    Hi,

    I would like to use a variable instead of the path name when calling a function.

    ie :

    Result = MyFunction(‘FolderA\Signal1’)

    works fine

    but

    Dim Fld = “FolderA\”

    Result = MyFunction(Fld :: Signal1)

    doesn’t work –> syntax problem

    Thanks for Help

    You can use the indirection operator $string-expression$ to access an FlexPro object from its (path) name given as a string:

    Dim Fld = "FolderA\\"
    $Fld : "Signal1"$

    accesses the object ‘Signal1’ in ‘FolderA’ relative to the path of the formula containing the expression. Note the double backslash, it is necessary because the \ acts as escape character.
