How I assign macro variable value into qlikview variable???

I created two qlikview variables 'vName' and 'vAvlName'.

through macro I am getting the value from qlikview variable 'vName'.

Sub DispName
set Name1 = ActiveDocument.Variables("vName")
GetUserName = vName.GetContent.String
End Sub

Now in 'GetUserName' variable i got the value.

Now I want to assign this value to qlikview variable 'vAvlName'.

How can I assign this value from macro to qlikview variable.

Please help.........

Sub DispName

          set Name1 = ActiveDocument.Variables("vName")

          set Name2 = ActiveDocument.Variables("vAvlName")

          GetUserName = Name1.GetContent.String

          GetOldUserName = Trim(Name2.GetContent.String)

          if ( GetOldUserName <> "" ) then

                         tmpString = GetOldUserName & "," & GetUserName

Hi Amit,

It is as simple as following :

Sub DispName

          set Name1 = ActiveDocument.Variables("vName")

          set Name2 = ActiveDocument.Variables("vAvlName")

          GetUserName = Name1.GetContent.String

          Name2.SetContent GetUserName , true

End Sub

please notice that vName is not correct and you need to use Name1 instead.

GetUserName = vName.GetContent.String

Thanx for your reply.

but this was not a correct answer which i am looking.

Actually I have 'vName' qlikview variable and one more 'vAvlName' qlikview variable.

I am getting vName value through Macro and want to assign this value into qlikview variable 'vAvlName'.

ActiveDocument.Variables("vAvName").SetContent GetUserName, True

Yes, it is basically the same as what you wrote Peyman. I think it should work. I have used similar code on many occasions and never had a problem.
