Found the answer for myself in an .FLA available on FlashKit. Thank God for this resource.

The answer is:

set("song", eval("track" + i));

Hey folks,
I want to do something really simple.

I have a list of variables:
track1 = "this"
track2 = "that"
track3 = "the other"

...and so on.

steve, what is Swiff Peg and who makes it?

hi,
well, i now know that QT supports MP3, because i can open and play MP3 files from my hard drive using QT. (incidentally, by chance i discovered that QT Pro will let you rip MP3's to WAV files)....

yes, i believe QT does support MP3 format (I can open them from my HD). when you say "make the file all inclusive", do you mean have the Flatten option selected on export?

i recommend also learning other computer languages. if you work on websites a lot, one reasonable language to start with is JavaScript. check out the JavaScript tutorial at http://www.webmonkey.com ...

my pleasure, just curious if you know of anyone else who has devised a scripted solution such as this. i think it would be useful to streamline it, so that potentially you could name the URL & data...
