[COLOR=gray]I want to make an array that holds objects, each object containing an x- and y-value representing the location of each mc on screen. The mcs will not move. How do I reference each mc using a variable with a loop?[/COLOR]  
[COLOR=gray][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=gray]For example, if I have the mcs _mc\_0_, _mc\_1_, _mc\_2_, _mc\_3_, … _mc\_49_[/COLOR]  
[COLOR=gray]I want to…[/COLOR]

```auto
 
var n = 50;
var myArray:Array = new Array();
   for (i = 0; i < n; i++){
   myArray.push(
**"mc_" + i // this line is far from correct**
   )
}

```

[COLOR=red]**Solved: search eval() in forum.**[/COLOR]
