Can you combine "text" + a variable to a new variable name?

[Brogsitter]

I havent found a solution for this issue so far, but I really wonder if this is possible somehow.

$counter = 0
$var_1 = "something"
$var_2 = "something else"

While 1 = 1
$counter = $counter + 1

MsgBox(1, ""var_" & $counter", ""var_" &counter"

WEnd

Any ideas or help will be appreciated.

Take a look at the Assign() function

You can very likely do what you want to do using Arrays.

Dim $strings[5]
$Strings[0] = "Message 1"
$Strings[1] = "Message 2"
$Strings[2] = "Message 3"
$Strings[3] = "Message 4"
$Strings[4] = "Message 5"

For $i = 0 to 5
Msgbox(0,$Strings[$i], $Strings[$i])
Next

have you tried swimming?

$counter = 0
$var_1 = "something"
$var_2 = "something else"

While 1 = 1
$counter = $counter + 1

MsgBox(1, $var_1 & " is " & $counter, var_2 & " is " & $counter)

WEnd

like this:

$value & "text"

Not what he was asking. He wanted to reference Var1 and Var2 with a counter

OR you could try useing timerinit() and timerdiff() maybe thats not what you want but you could try

This appears to work.

Local $counter = 0
Local $var_0
Local $var_1 = "something"
Local $var_2 = "something else"

Assign("var_" & $counter, Eval("var_" & $counter + 2) & " Extra")

While $counter <> 3
    MsgBox(1, "var_" & $counter, "var_" & $counter & " = " & Eval("var_" & $counter))
    $counter = $counter + 1

WEnd

Edit: Added Assign() Function which was mentioned in an earlier post.

It adds to the possibilities of variables manipulation.
