hi there. first of all i want to excuse my poor english.  
here is my problem.  
i got several dynamic textboxes and i want with 2 cycles to fill them with some data loaded from external txt file.  
… but i get stuck.  
heres my code.

```
    var row:Number;
var field:Number;

   for (row = 1; row &lt; 9; row++) {
	for (field = 1 ; field &lt; 8; field++){
		
	 eval("text" + "_" + row + "_" + field).text = this.eval("text" + "_" + row + "_" + field);
 
	 
	}
}

```

i got undefind in all boxes …  
name of variables in the external file are text\_1\_1 , text\_1\_2 … text\_4\_3 … .etc  
name of dynamic boxes are the same…  
if i set it “manual” text\_1\_1.text=this.text\_1\_1; evertythink is working… but i dont want to type 56 lines.  
i think its because “this” property and after “.” cant be eval() …  
i tryed several ways to solve this but no result. plS help … thank u in advance.
