Hi, I have a simple question, and my apologies to the gurus for taking your time -- i still can't search the archives.
My archives search is current <http://mindlube.com/cgi-bin/search-use-rev.cgi>
I have a set of arrays, titled arrayN, arrayV, arrayA
I want to be able to build the name of the array I need to refer to on the fly, e.g.,
put "array" & "N" into theArrayName
put theArrayName["@"]
this does not work -- using a variable for the name of the array causes the array not to be properly referenced. What am I doing wrong, or what can one do to actually build an array reference of this sort that works?
One way is to evaluate the expression with do or value: put the value of (theArrayName & "[" & quote & "@" & quote & "]")
This is an area where custom property sets is more expressive:
set the customProperties[theArrayName] to someArray set the customPropertySet of me to theArrayName put the "@" of me
Hope this helps,
