Hi forum  
Can anyone help me add a child to each movieclip in the array below?

I want the code in bold to increment with the wObj movieclips.

e.g.  
wObj1 contains a loader called wObjIcon1 loading an image from wIconURL1

wObj2 contains a loader called wObjIcon2 loading an image from wIconURL2

…and so on.

```auto
        public function makeWObjects(numNewWObjects) {
            for (var i:uint=1; i<=numNewWObjects; i++) {
                wObjCounter++;
                wObj[wObjCounter] = new MovieClip();
                wObj[wObjCounter].addChild( **wObjIcon1** );
                **wObjIcon1**.load( **wIconURL1** );
                addChild(wObj[wObjCounter]);

            }
        }

```

Thanks in advance  
Matt
