Error, "Value with type Quest.Toad.Workflow.Activities.Database.BindObject not supported" when se (4229070)

I'm setting up a query that references variables defined within an automation script. However trying to use the #Var_Name# syntax as a variable for the query is not working in the automation. I receive the following error:

Value with type Quest.Toad.Workflow.Activities.Database.BindObject not supported

Here's an example:

Variable - BLD_NAM

SELECT PLAYER_ID, MVP_PLAYERID, CLIENT_ID
FROM PlayerID@REMOTE#BLD_NAM# PLAYID
WHERE (IDType = 'P')

If I were to use the '&' for a prompt in the Toad editor, it works, but still does not work in the automation process
