stupid for question

[TheSongSalad]

sorry for the stupid question, but i'm trying to make a for loop that declares the vars flashname1 through flashname100. this is what i've tried to do, and, yes, it's on a movie clip, but it won't work, can anyone help me?

onClipEvent(load){
	this._visible = false;
	for(i=1;i<=100;i++){
		var _root.flashname[i] = "it works";
	}
}
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
	trace(flashname4);
}

thanks for any help.

Use an array...

onClipEvent(load){
	this._visible = false;
	for(var i=1;i<=100;i++){
		_root["flashname"+i]="it works";
	}
}
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
	trace(_root.flashname4);
}
