How do i call a function in a loop in AS2?

I have a function:
[AS]function createWord(_mc:MovieClip, textInside:String) {

}[/AS]
This function creates a word inside of a movieclip. The words that it makes are specified in a text document in an array, and I don’t know how many there will be. Then I have a do while loop that creates movie clips for these words to go into:
[AS]do {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“mc”+i+"_mc",i);
} for (word*=word[i++]);[/AS]
The only thing is, now I have to call the createWord() function for each of these created movieclips. Right now my code looks like this:
[AS]createWord(mc1_mc,word[1]);
createWord(mc2_mc,word[2]);
createWord(mc3_mc,word[3]);
createWord(mc4_mc,word[4]);
createWord(mc5_mc,word[5]);

createWord(mc25_mc,word[25]);[/AS]
Is there a way to call these functions in a loop?
I’ve already tried this, but it didn’t work:
[AS]do {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“mc”+i+"_mc",i);
createWord(mc+1+_mc,word*);
} for (word*=word[i++]);[/AS]
