Right... you can't do that. How is it supposed to know that the Z in
textViewZ is supposed to be a variable? You would run into all sorts of
problems with compiling if it did stuff like this.
You could, however, stick each textView in either an array or an ArrayList
and then loop over the indexes of the array, similar to how you are calling
textValue and textBackground... So you would have something like this in
your for loop:
TextView curTextView = myTextViewArray[Z];
curTextView.setText(textValue[Z]);
curTextView.setBackgroundColor(textBackground[Z]);
Hope that helps,
Justin
