VAR("variable") as string

I'm trying to use a design variable as a string to pass to calcVal, but it seems that VAR("variable") only produces numerical values.

Is there a workaround or a different function to do so?

Thanks

Dear amac,

A design variable can definitely be a string. In many cases, I used a design variable to specify a process corner. Figure 1 shows an example.

However, I believe calcVal is a function to pass values from one test to another. Perhaps there is a means to use CalcVal to pass a string, but I am not aware of a methodology that allows this,
