How to use values in a field as a variable

Dear All,

I have fetch the all foldernames with a macro from the ftp site. The name of the field is fileName and the content of it as below:

08012012

08062012

08132012

08272012

09032012

09102012

09172012

09242012

Now I want to use them as a variable in the path instead of XXXXX.

LOAD

*

FROM

[ftp://username:password.ftp01.xyz.com/Koctas/Koctas_Logs/XXXXX/0001/asl.csv]

(txt, codepage is 1254, no labels, delimiter is ',', msq) ;

How can I do that?
