Create a list of undefined user vars?

[DrD]

Wow. That's a bunch of prep to get the list in order! I was also trying Cyrille's idea of using HVars for this. It might be simpler. I can get the HVar list, but (so far) I haven't been able to exchange any numerical data with the variables.

Here's an abbreviated example:

Code:


L1:={'CAT',5000,58.95,'IBM',2000,122.14};  // {symbol, #shares, cost, ...} Create in CAS!
HVars("Tickers"):={L1(1),L1(4)};  //  Home variable Tickers == symbol list == {CAT,IBM}

I've tried several ways to use Tickers but no luck. Any ideas?
