    Re: help with making a dynamic variable

    Your problem is that you are trying to manipulate a string as if it were a number.

    The & is not the same as +. & concatenates the two strings. So

    "Test," & "Test 2" = "Test,Test 2"

    "Test,Test 2" - "Test 2" just doesn't make any sense, mathmatically. You need to use Replace()

    This replaces one string of text with another. In this case, you are replacing a string of text with an empty string.
