Yeah those are valid indeed, provided B is a properly defined Variable.... icon_wink.gif

But my dear friend.... These statements are moving a string, which is in between two quotes, to variable B... Which I am sure not the case you were looking for. And if you remove quotes from the string it is not a valid MOVE statement.

Regards,

Priyesh.
