Another Harbour bug. The following sample:
- Code: Select all Expand view
FUNCTION MAIN()
LOCAL n := "01"
PRIVATE cVar01 := "Test"
? cVar&n
INKEY( 0 )
RETURN NIL
gives this compilation error:
- Code: Select all Expand view
Harbour 3.2.0dev (r1501292255)
Copyright (c) 1999-2015, http://harbour-project.org/
BUG.prg(7) Error E0042 Macro of declared symbol 'CVAR&N'
1 error
No code generated.
While xHarbour compiles correctly.
Any ideas?

Cristobal,
thank you. Is this the correct way?
- Code: Select all Expand view
FUNCTION MAIN()
LOCAL n := "01"
PRIVATE cVar01 := "Test"
? &( "cVar" + n )
INKEY( 0 )
RETURN NIL

No, but I have older applications to maintain.

Enrico,
Thank goodness. You had me worried.
Those older apps must be really old.

Gale,
Several years ago I attended some training sessions held by Microsoft, and all the people there were commenting how they had to earn their retirement by 35 years of age. Beyond that, they believed, no one could possibly continue as a programmer.
When I explained I had been programming, as my 3rd profession, for over 30 years, they didn't think that was possible.
And I do remember starting my first applications using dbase II, CP/M and the runtime licenses from Ashton Tate. Because they were close, it was always fun to go to their offices for "training" sessions.
A few years ago I went to the Microsoft museum and everything on display had been in my "arsenal" at one time or another. I thought maybe I should take residence in a display case with all the other dinosaurs.
