One approach:
get ("put array" & tSomeCharacter & "[" & tKeyValue & "] into tValue")
do it
-- now tValue contains the value pulled from arrayN[x]
Another version of this approach:
put arrayValue("N",tKeyValue) into tMyValue
...
...
function arrayValue pArraySuffix, pArrayKey
get ("put array" & pArraySuffix & "[" & pArrayKey & "] into tValue")
do it
return tValue
end arrayValue
Hope this helps.
