Referencing dynamic variables

I'm loading items from a MySQL dbase, and depending on the number of items it creates a number of menuitems (MC with a textfield).

How do I populate the textfield (called Fieldname)? The eval pics up the value of the textfield, but I cant put a value in there.

Code:

---

_root.Numberof = _root.Numberof *1;
for(i=0; i<_root.Numberof; i++) {
//        _root.news +=eval("_root.MenuItem"+i);
        duplicateMovieClip("ParentMenu", "Menu"+i, (i+1));
        tempvar =eval("Menu"+i+".Fieldname");
        tempvar = "test";
       
}

["Menu"+i].fieldName="hello"

or absolute

_root["Menu"+i].fieldName="hello"

hoope its what your after

I think you have to turn things arouns. TempVar is the value, isnt it?

If the textfield is called fieldName you have to use that first.

tempvar = "test";
this["Menu"+i].fieldname=tempvar;

Thanks I've sorted it out:

Code:

---

set ("Menu"+i+".Fieldname", eval("MenuItem"+i));
