Ok, I have an external text File with a bunch of variables in it. I want to store these variables in an Array.

My code:

loadVariablesNum(“whatever.txt”, 0)  
//say we have variables in the text file called test1, test2, test3.//

myArray = new Array();  
myArray[0] = test1  
myArray[1] = test2  
myArray[2] = test3  
trace(myArray[0])

Is there any reason why this shouldn’t work?? I know the variables are loading because I can call them without using arrays, also if I just put a sting such as “hello” in myArray[0], I can trace it. Otherwise I keep getting undefined. Any help is much appreciated, this is driving me crazy! Thanks.
