Loading movieclips from library

1

Hello, i am trying to load movieclips from the library using an array. I have manage to load a single movieclip using

var myArray:Array=[];

myArray[1]=imagex1;

var mc:MovieClip = new myArray[1];
addChild(mc);

but now I’ve tried using a loop by doing

var myArray:Array=[];

for(var i:uint = 0; i < 8; i++){
myArray*=“imagex”+i;

var mc:MovieClip =  new myArray*;
addChild(mc);

}

and i get the error:
TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor.
at usethis4_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()

I new at this so i don’t really understand what that means, can someone help with this? Thanks
