I won't bore anyone with the actual code unless requested. I have a trigger set up to capture information about group members, and to create a variable for each person. The thing is, I also want an easy way to delete all of the variables, which is hard because obviously, I won't know what the names are. First, I added each variable name to a string list, and tried to call it with this:

#UNVAR %item(some_variable,1)

Which didn't work, and even if it did, I would also have to create a loop or for statement using the number of items. I wanted to try appending a prefix to each variable, like:

#VAR MM%1 somedata

But I couldn't figure out how to use wildcards to access variables.

I'm a c programmer, so I'm really looking for some kind of pointer thingie. I'm using 5.55, so if upgrading would help, I'd be willing to do that. Thanks.

Put all the variable in a class and then just use #DELCLASS

I'd personnal use a %db variable then you can either set it to %null or #DELKEY things. Key an index key so you know what is in it.
