tried to use REPT macro with iterator number failing.

Hi Anyone see issue with following? As far as I concerned and according this tutorial
http://users.cis.fiu.edu/~downeyt/cop3402/rept.html, it all looks legitimate code to declare range of variables whose name is:
decsIdt0, descIdt1 and so on.

   i=0   
   REPT    32
   descIdt&i&   db   'int-gate'   
   i=i+1
   ENDM
   ENDIF

This is the compiler error thrown at every iteration:

pmode.asm(152) : error A2008: syntax error : &
MacroLoop(1): iteration 64: Macro Called From
  pmode.asm(152): Main Line Code
pmode.asm(152) : error A2008: syntax error : &
MacroLoop(1): iteration 65: Macro Called From
  pmode.asm(152): Main Line Code
pmode.asm(152) : error A2008: syntax error : &

  pmode.asm(152): Main Line Code

   i=0
   REPEAT 32
    @CatStr(<descIdt>, %i, < db   'int-gate'>)
    i=i+1
   ENDM

Hi ggmasm32,

You can also do it this way:

Code Select Expand

i=0   
   REPT    32
    i$ textequ %i
%   descIdt&i$   db   'int-gate'
   i=i+1
   ENDM

I don't know why your reference is wrong, but it is.
