Hi, you can either build up a Rebol source code part, while parsing and later execute it to get the variables into the global context. Or you can create a rule, which creates variable names and directly assign those name the values. It's not a missing feature of parse, you have to dynamically create the code Rebol should execute to create the variable/value pairs. Robert

Hi All, Is there a way in Rebol to "parse into". What I am trying to do is to read a line from a file and place each field in specific variables. Such as: var1: field1 var3: field3 etc.etc. With all Rebol's power, I cannot find a way to do this simply. TIA, Greg Piney Standard and Poor's Web Engineering

Hi, Greg, could you provide an example of what a line looks like? -jn- [greg_piney--mcgraw-hill--com] wrote:

Joel, Just a simple space-delimited config file field1 field2 field3 field4 ...... the values should end up in: var1 var2 var3 var4 .....

In that case...
>> set [var1 var2 var3 var4] parse {field1 field2 field3 field4} none
== ["field1" "field2" "field3" "field4"]
>> var1
== "field1"
>> var2
== "field2"
>> var3
== "field3"
>> var4
== "field4"
