Hi Folks.

Bom dia para todos.
( Good day for all )

You just know about my English, so please, stay
patience.

I am trying to made a DataBase.

The first program creates and are the modifier of
all DataBases structures. He handles names, types
and sizes of all DataBase's fields. No probles in
this step.

Another program will open everyone DataBase if
he is created with the above refer program.  
After it, i can read field's names inside the
opened DataBase, like this:
 
name_first_field = line_config_database[1..10]

or read type's fields as

type_second_field = line_config_database[...and
so go.

The problem is: I want use this field's name like
as any variables, but i don't know how declare it
and Euphoria don't works with pointers like "C"

I believe you will understand better in down
lines.

If i know how variables the program will works,it
is easy, just declare it like as:

sequence NAME  -- no problems

But the program was running and in any moment
it receives a information that it will need
works with a new variable type sequence named 
"NAME" and in the next lines, I would to do
anything like this

NAME = "Sergio Gelli"

But the variable "NAME" isn't was declared because
this program only know about its when opens the
DataBases.

How can i do it? 
Exists another format to do it?

I will stay gratefully for any suggestions.

Muito obrigado pela sua atencao.

( Very thanks to your attention )

Udachi to Igor  ( Spell I ok ?)
