setting simulink block values from command line

Hi,

Does anyone know whether it is possible to pass a variable name to a simulink block when defining it from the command line? So in the following code:

src='built-in/Constant'; dest=strcat(systemname,'/','example'); add_block(src, dest, 'Value', '5', 'position',position)

instead of '5', i would like to pass a variable name e.g. 'a' which can later be defined in an m-script.

regards, Thijs

set_param('systemname/blockname','Value','a')

i have value stored in a variable.(e,g a=5) how can i get the value stored in variable (i.e 5). if i use your logic, the block will have value 'a'
