This is a dumb question, but I'm having trouble finding the answer to this.

I'd like to do the following:

x<-"asdf"

and then have

the object x.y become automatically converted/represented as asdf.y (sort of
akin to macro variables in SAS where you would do:
%let x=asdf and do &x..y)

What is the syntax for having x represented as "asdf" in x.y ?

Thanks,
Andrew
