replacing quotes around data elements

[Tim Gobbel]

I am doing a VRL for the first time and have gotten to where most is working but the data comes thru with the quotes attached.  I have searched the archives and tried string map in several different ways.  I think I am getting my lists and brackets mixed up. this is in a pre-proc in an Xlate.  Here is what is not working.  Any thoughts?

set dob [lindex $xlateInVals 0]

echo $dob

set dob1 [string map

$dob]

set xlateOutVals

Thanx!
