hi
you could do this at the beanshell level
//check the number of brackets , this is pseudo code, also check that
loopBatch always has a value that is the string //representation of an
integer or an integer

if(vars.get("BatchLink_g3")) == null ||
"".equals(vars.get("BatchLink_g3")).trim())){
   vars.put("loopBatch","0");
} else {
       vars.put("loopBatch", vars.get("BatchLink_g3"));
}


OR
 You could do it as a javascript funtion (null means the value remains as
${loopBatch} and you'd have to pass it as a string so there be quotes around
the ${loopBatch}


regards
deepak
