Actually, you got a little mixed up there.

the set variable command always uses an =.

You were thinking of the comparison operatiors, = and eq. For *comparison*
of nummbers you use =, for comparison of strings you use eq.

Can you see any reason why these variables wouldn't be set?

Yes. You're attempting to use the = to set numeric values, rather than "eq"
to set string values. (You can check that your Eval() statement is working
by putting a trace statement after your variable).

Set Variable: "OldAddressID" = Eval(AddressID&AddressCount) won't work.
Set Variable: "OldAddressID" eq Eval(AddressID&AddressCount) will work.
