Actionscript Q

• nosaj

  I want to set a variable to the value of another variable that is called by concatinating a string and another variable,

  for example:
  varnum=3
  newvar = ["var" + varnum];

  instead of getting:
  newvar = varvarnum
  i want:
  newvar = var3

  Any help is greatly appreciated.

  nm I got it:
  newvar = eval ("var" + varnum);

  if the variable is in the _root, you can also do _root["string"] i think, so you could just do _root[name_of_variable_is_in_me...

  iono, been a while since i did it

  var varnum:Number = 3
  var newvar:String = "var" + varnum;
  trace(newvar)
