Subject: dm macro arithmetic

Hi,

I'd like to use macro arithmatic in my display but can't see how it might work. For example,

dm mydisplay.dl b=32

the display would have 10 monitors attached to m32.VAL, m33.VAL, m34.VAL....

so the edm properties would be m$(b).VAL, m$(b+1).VAL, m$(b+2).VAL...

I tried the above syntax, in a text object and got "m$(b+1)" displayed instead of "m33". m$(b) did properly display "m32".

Is there any hope?

Thanks
