Conditional expression to output strings?

Using the disabled fields to set values of attributes (ala  The Wiki )  i can create conditional expressions that out put numbers, but is there a way I can use it to output strings that can be set to another attribute? I can't seem to create one, since multiplying a number by a string is just confusing for the chat parser :) @{name1} = bobbie @{name2} = georgie @{switchit} = 1 I've tried various things but the chat parser doesn't want to compare a string and number. I get both names or neither.  @{which} = [[({0,floor(1-abs(@{switchit}-1))}dl1)]]*(@{name1}) + @{name2} @{which} = [[({0,floor(1-abs(@{switchit}-1))}dl1)*(@{name1}) + @{name2}]] @{which} ={@{name1},@{switchit}}dl1

This is possible via a 'hack': Add an Attribute (e.g. named 'attr-prefix') with a Current value of @{ Call @{attr-prefix}@{character_name}|name@{switchit}}
