Soundboard

I'm making a soundboard with a large amount of sounds, more than 400, and I was wondering if there would be any way to get the sounds to activate on a button click using actionscript without manually dragging the sound into the buttons. Sorry if I'm not being specific, also I'm using Flash 8, AS2.

Edit: What I was thinking of doing was perhaps giving each button a code to name itself 1, 2, 3, 4, ..., and putting each sound into an array where I could make it so that when each button is pressed, the corresponding number's sound in the array plays, but I don't know how to put 400+ sounds into an array.
