A command like 'PUT' RecordVar would be evaluated as an expression, quite possible with a value for the RecordVar variable being retrieved (whether this is what you want or not). However, issuing the command as 'PUT RecordVar' would issue the string as a literal (without the quotes of course) to the external host, so no value would be retrieved for the variable. Again, turning on TRACE C should illuminate the situation.
