[RESOLVED] Syntax question ( dynamically defining movie clip names )

[skalie]

Howdy, I'd like to generate this dynamically...

button0.num = 0;
button1.num = 1; 

I have got this far....

for(i=0;i<2;i++){
    trace ("button" + i + ".num = " + i );
} 

.....as in I can get the desired result in a trace statement, I just need it to magically get it out of the trace statement and turn it into usable code....

Thanks in advance.
