Maxl - can you use variables in iferror statements

Question

hi guys,
A quick one:
Can you use variables when doing error handling? I assume the answer is yes, but just wanted to make sure.
example:
set app1 = Test;
set app1_db1 = Test;
alter database $app1.$app1_db1 force archive to file "C:\\EssbaseBackup\\$app1\\$app1_db1\\$app1_db1.arc";
iferror 'Bk_$app1.$app1_db1_Error';
define label 'Bk_$app1.$app1_db1_Error';
exit 10;
I am putting error handling into my script and want to double check before I go about making the alterations.
Many thanks,
Russell

You don't need to split the files. Create a Maxl with parameters and then call it in a bat file.
In the bat you can then check for Error.
essmsh -D "%HYP_MONTH_SCRIPTS_DIR%\Maxl_Files\HYP_ESS_Archive.msh" %DECRYPTKEY% Appname1 Dbname1
call :archiveerrcheck
essmsh -D "%HYP_MONTH_SCRIPTS_DIR%\Maxl_Files\HYP_ESS_Archive.msh" %DECRYPTKEY% Appname2 Dbname2
call :archiveerrcheck
archiveerrcheck:
     SET FILE=%MAXLLOG_DIR%\Archive.log
     findstr /R "\<ERROR" %FILE% > ESSErrCheck
      for /F %%A in ("ESSErrCheck") do If %%~zA NEQ 0 (
        call :datestamp
        echo  Error in Archive Process......................... > %ESSLOG%
        copy %FILE% %HYP_MONTH_ERR_DIR%\Essbase\MaxL\Maxl_Error.log
        DEL /Q ESSErrCheck
        call :exit_process
       ) else (
               echo  %DTSTMP%  Log Out Process was successfull......................... >> %ESSLOG%
               call :remove_file ESSErrCheck
GOTO EOF
:EOFRegards
