Angel,

I can't quite tell from your example, but it looks like you're using
the #define feature to configure the array at compile time (not at
run time).  I don't think you could create an SQT file that would
allow you to type in the size of the array at runtime.  What I'm
looking for is a mechanism to allow me to calculate the array size
at runtime (using a #variable, not a {variable}).
