How can I assemble an CFML command inside a string and execute it?

For example, If I had the following CFML code, what would be the next line
to actually cause the variable "somevalue" to be created and assigned a
value of 3?

<cfset myString = "<CFSET somevalue=3>">

I have a table with two columns called "variableName" and "variableValue".
I'd like to loop through the set and make sure all the variables get their
assigned values.

I could have sworn I made this happen before, but I just can't seem to
remember how.  I've tried the #evaluate()# function, but you can't do
something like <CFSET #evaluate("variableName")# =
#evaluate("variableValue")#> because the left side of an equation can't be a
function, according to the CF rules.

Any ideas???
