Comparing rows and columns with special characters

This might be very easy but I am new to JMP and finding it difficult to find a solution to this error.

Unexpected "%". Perhaps there is a missing "," or ")".

Scoped data table access requires a data table column or variable in access or evaluation of dt1: Acidic Variant' , dt1:Acidic Variant /*###*/

I am simply comparing a row in one table with columns of the other table. It does work for row and column names which do not have special characters like % or () but I will have names which will have special characters. Can anyone point out to me how this can be handled? Any help much appreciated. Thank you

Re: Comparing rows and columns with special characters

I figured that my loop wasn't right coz of which it didnt take the last value. Sorry for the late update.
