QTP Error - Bracketed options are not enclosed in one of (),{}, [], or <>.

[Joe Boyle]

Its just that the error message makes references to oracle, and the syntax
itemx(n) refers to the nth occurrence of the array named itemx. It might be
that the item itemx is part of a ksam file but I am only offering a
suggestion :)

Regards, Joe.

Excuse me Joe but I don't see the logic you mention. 
Each A AND B set refer to different items.

Is it anything to do with the array references?  Where
is the array being set up?  Does it contain valid data
for each record set?
