SequenceForm, StringForm, StyleForm are "wrappers" that affect the formatting of output for display. They are not processed within a calculation. You need another construction, such as filename = StringJoin["test", ToString[i], ".asc"], or, equivalently filename = "test" <> ToString[i] <> ".asc" > >by the way, is there a way to save (all) variables with name and current >content?
