declare problem

[mikedawson at bellsouth.net]

 I have a -v select process which sets a global field "highdate which is declared as(10,mdy/,g) highdate= "12/'31/{getenv("pfcmark")-"1")
highdate is blank
I have declared mark(2,*,g) and set that to getenv("pfcmark")-"1" and that is set.
Note that if highdate="" and mark ne ""
Then: Highdate="12/31/"{mark.
Highdate should be set to 12/31/2029 but is blank. This programming line comes before line 1 of this email.
If: highDate = ""
Then: highdate="12/31/20"{getenv("pfcmark)"-"1". Highdate is still empty. Why?

Declare the global variable in the associated AUTO processing table.  Set it in the -V selection set.
