Indirect addressing in HP PPL. Is it possible?
How does one do 'indirect' addressing in HP PPL?

Example: variableoneâ–¶variablepointer;// These are both LOCAL variables. This line does not work.

LOCAL variableone contains data from user input.

LOCAL variablepointer contains the destination name of a User variable. The destination name has been constructed by some code, based on user input, and stored in variablepointer.

I need a line(s) to store the contents of variableone into a User variable pointed to by the content of variablepointer.

Note that it had been suggested that I try the EXPR command (page 391). This command, the parsing of a string, cannot bring about indirect addressing.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Happy coding and may you see ' i No errors in the program ' with every compilation.
