I would like to add the i var to the stringname “project” so i can trace them to return “ONE”, of course this won’t work in it’s current construction and it’s driving me quite mad as i’m overlooking something rather simple i think…  
I can’t use arrays, so thats out of the question 😕

## Anyone got any ideas? Thanks 🙂

[font=courier][size=2] i=0;  
project0 = “ONE”;  
currentproject = project + i;  
trace(currentproject);[/size][/font]

returns Nan

[font=courier][size=2] i=0;  
project0 = “ONE”;  
currentproject = [“project” + i];  
trace(currentproject);[/size][/font]

returns project0
