\*\*Hi,

What is the correct syntax to initiate a function in a class similar to constructing an associative array? I have a function that’s custom variables is ballooning out and I’d like to label them in the call for sanity sake.\*\*

**currently:**  
myClass.myClassFunction(“hello world”,999,0xff0000);

**desired:**  
myClass.myClassFunction(myText:“hello world”,myNumber:999,myColor:0xff0000);

**and the class itself for reference:**  
class com.myClass {  
[INDENT]public var myText:String;  
public var myNumber:Number;  
public var myColor:Number;  
public function myClassFunction(myText:String,myNumber:Number,myColor:Number){

}  
[/INDENT]}

Thanks!
