run plan - pass a filepath though the calcVal() function

Hi all,
within a run plan (ADE Assembler) I wanted to run a first transient TEST0, save the final nodes operation point (the writefinal inside the transient options) and then retrieve the saved file in a second transient TEST1 as a nodeset or initial conditions. I've added an output DIR = openResults() that correctly return the path of the simulation. I want to give this path as a variable for the second transient, but it seems that the function calcVal("DIR" "TEST0") return nil. Can I use the calcVal function for string too? Or is there other functions more suitable?
Thanks!
Nicola

    Update: if I don't use the run plan, the variable is correctly taken as a variable in the following simulation! However, I get the follwoing error because the new variable starts with / (as in a path) and not with the ", as it should be for a string. Ignoring for the moment the issue with the run plan, how can I solve this?
