variable form in addfiles context

Hi
is there a way of using a character variable to specify and input or output file when readin/writing after an addfile command:

for example

ivar="prate"

input = addfile("foo.nc","r")
array = input->ivar

doesn't work as it is looking for variable "ivar". Some how need to expand the variable ivar beforehand.

Regards,
Mark.
