Rotating B inside a loop command

Question
I have a cylinder with 6 holes on the side, I program 1 hole and create a loop to do the other 5. My cmm head (Renishaw PH10M) starts at A90B-90. My cylinder is in the Z axis direction, I am working on some code to set the B rotation with a variable but no success can use some help if anyone knows of a way to solve this. Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Bob

    I played with the code some and the B moves to 35deg then back to zero, I couldn't make it go from 35 to 70 to 105 etc. Here is my code
    ASSIGN/VANG = 35
    ASSIGN/TIPSTR = STR("T1A-90B")+VANG
    V1 =LOOP/START, ID = YES, NUMBER = 4, START = 1, SKIP = ,
    OFFSET: XAXIS = 0, YAXIS = 0, ZAXIS = 0, ANGLE = 36
    CIR A =FEAT/CONTACT/CIRCLE,CARTESIAN,IN,LEAST_SQR
    THEO/<0,-1.4987,-1.115>,<0,-1,0>,0.125,0,360
    ACTL/<0,-1.4987,-1.115>,<0,-1,0>,0.125,0,360
    TARG/<0,-1.4987,-1.115>,<0,-1,0>
    ANGLE VEC=<1,0,0>
    DIRECTION=CCW
    SHOW ADVANCED MEASUREMENT OPTIONS=NO
    SHOW_CONTACT_PARAMETERS=YES
    NUMHITS=3,DEPTH=0.04,PITCH=0
    SAMPLE HITS=0,SPACER=0
    AVOIDANCE MOVE=BOTH,DISTANCE=0.65
    FIND HOLE=DISABLED,ONERROR=NO,READ POS=NO
    SHOWHITS=NO
    TIP/TIPSTR, SHANKIJK=-0.9563, -0.2924, 0, ANGLE=-90
    LOOP/END
    Thank you for your help
