Glenn,


I just snipped a line out of my flash file that I know works:


      Set Variable: "p"&j = eval("ncount"&j)/ntotal * 100


Since it looks almost identical to yours (except for the space after the

"&", but I don't think that should matter), I'd suspect that your

problem is elsewhere in your code (what do you mean by "nothing's

happening"?)
