Re: [ferret_users] string variable as file name

[Paulo Santiago <paulohsm@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Chao,

Try

yes? let filename= "/home/data01/OUTPUT_A5F_SP2/hist_spinup.nc"
yes? use `filename`

(delimit variable with grave accent)

Cheers,

Dear all,

A very simple question, why I if use

yes? use "/home/data01/OUTPUT_A5F_SP2/hist_spinup.nc"  it works.

but if I do like this:
yes? let filename= "/home/data01/OUTPUT_A5F_SP2/hist_spinup.nc"
yes? use filename

it will fail?

The problem is simplified because I want to use the file names stored in a string array.

Thanks a lot,

Chao
