  11.     Hello REXX-L,
  12.  
  13.  
  14.      I have a Rexx coding question that somebody on the list
  15. might be able to help with.  I'm trying to write a Rexx program that
  16. will create the following output.  My input looks like the following.
  17.  
  18.               variable
  19.               --------
  20. record1:      out=c1
  21. record2:      out=c2
  22. record3:      out=c3
  23. record4:      out=c4
  24.    .            .
  25.    .            .
  26.    .            .
  27.  
  28.  
  29.  
  30. I want to read these input records and create the following string.
  31.  
  32.  
  33.       SET C1 C2 C3 C4 . . .  until all records have been read.
  34.  
  35. Any help on how I can create this string would be appreciated.
  36.
