Can a variable be used as a reference to aother field or variable?

[#1]

Is there functionality in Qlikview where a variable can be used as reference or pointer variable?

e.g

variable1 = 'Variable2'

Variable2='John'

Can I use variable1 as a pointer to contents of Variable2 to display 'John'?

HI

Yes. you can

Try like this

variableName  values

vTest                = 3

vTest1               = vTest

Then refer in text box like =vTest1 gives 3

Hope it helps
