Changing the number of a variable

[gertsolo]

Hey,

I have a function that I want to do a few times with other values for the variables.

I'm working with for example:

$file1 = "C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\AutoIt\Webbuilding\msg1.txt"

$file2 = "C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\AutoIt\Webbuilding\msg2.txt"

$file3 = "C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\AutoIt\Webbuilding\msg3.txt"

I have 3 editboxes: $Edit1, $Edit2 and $Edit3

Some stuff in $file1 will be used in $Edit1, $file2 in $edit2, etc...

Is there a way where I can have an array or something that can be used to change the number 1, 2 and 3 of that $file1 and $Edit1 so that I don't have to do the stuff 3 times in a row, but in an for next loop.

thx

DIm $edits[4],$Files[4]
for $n = 1 to 3
  $edits[$n] = GuiCtrlCreate("",x,y + ($n - 1)* verticalspacing,........)
next

for $n = 1 to 3
 $files[$n] = $file1 = "C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\AutoIt\Webbuilding\msg" & $n & "1.txt"
next
.
.
.

 for $n = 1 to 3

    fn_to_do_whatever($edits[$n],$files[$n])
next

Did you even read that?? the example in the manual is using the same principle as martins code, they are the same.
