    Not exacty sure what's goin' on, here, but I think what you want is

    code:
    set ("A" + B, 123);

    Sorry to be all pendatic, but the set command has been deprecated for around 5 years now.

    The format is

    this["A"+B]=123;

    Well, excuuuuse me, princess.

    Honestly, I've just been using set() because I found it whilst combing through the built-in ActionScript index. ...Now I know what all those people who use tellTarget feel like.

    Thanks for the update. I'll use that format from now on, if I can remember it.

    Yeah sorry, wasn't highlighting the error of your ways or anything ( Well, actually I was ), but I figure it's better to show the right way to do things, as so many of the newer guys read each thread and pick up bad habits.

    As to tellTarget, it's only last year I finally let that go ( And I still won't use with{ } to replace it )
