Actually, I finally figured out my problem. This doesn't work: t.DeepThot = 0 Host = 'DeepThot' t.host = t.host + 1; But this does work: t.DeepThot = 0 t.DeepThot = t.DeepThot + 1; Thinking a little, I found that this does work: t.DeepThot = 0 Host = 'DEEPTHOT' t.host = t.host + 1; So, my ultimate solution has been to do: t.DeepThot = 0 Host = 'DeepThot' Host = Upper(Host) t.host = t.host + 1 It looks like the problem is related to upper/lower case in the second level substitution. I couldn't see this documented anywhere.
