The SX/B online help references a __RAM() in it???
 

I'm trying to create a STRING variable where I can change the contents:

 

For example:

'-----------------------

Name:

    "Bill"  ' the contents of this will vary at runtime

Message:

     "My name is John"

'-----------------------

to something like 

'-----------------------

Message:

     "My name is Bill"

'-----------------------

 

1) READ has to address information in a DATA statement (I think)??

2) I don't think I can use DATA because the contents of a data variable cannot be changed at runtime??

3) I think the solution is somewhere with declaring the variables as byte arrays and moving data between them one byte at a time. 

4) I guess I'm unclear as to how to move data from one RAM address to another in a FOR loop using the @ operator.
