Hi Gavin !
There is a trick to do so but it is quite a strange way to do it.
If i understand well you should do it this way:
echo $var | read $(echo $NVATTR_3).
(let assume that "var" is the data you want to set in what you named $$NVATTR_
3)
I explain: "read" is an Aix command that set a data with a stream comming from
<STDIN> wich name is the first argument in the command line.
Here i do $(echo $NVATTR_3) so the shell return "fred" because $NVATTR_3 is
"fred"
So: echo $var | read $(echo $NVATTR_3) ==> echo $var | read fred
Then if you run "echo $fred" you will see the value in "var".
The $fred data now exists.

Just a quickie
Does anyone know if a global variable can be named indirectly?
By this I mean that given a node name of "fred", the value of $NVATTR_3 would be
"fred", could you then use this indirectly by entering $$NVATTR_3 in the
variable name field in a Set Global Variable node to end up with a global
variable named "fred' to which you could then assign a value?
Cheers - Gavin
