hi raja,

but it is not working in this case.
Code:
&mns=cdc
&bbb=34
 
&sss = &mns + &bbb

Hi Raja,

I also have some space on both side of equal ( = ) sign in some case of declaration.

Code:
 
&mns = cdc
&bbb = 34
 
&sss = &mns + &bbb

well, i think you need an elaborate script to satisfy all your needs.

Space can be overcome easily, but the assignment statement itself seems to have substitutions of variables. It is very much possible to do this, but not something I can attempt in the middle of my work here.

You can take the lead from all the suggestions posted and try yourself.
