Dim using variable as name?

[Chris_1013]

Is there any way I can create a variable, using a variable as it's name? For example... could I do something like this.

$myvar = "monkey"

Dim ;somehow using $myvar would create a $monkey variable

No, you can't do that. What are you trying to accomplish? Chances are good there's a way to do what you want without needing to define a variable held as a string in the contents of another variable.
