Looping through MovieClips

I have a series of moviclips named “item0”,“item1”, etc. What is the best way to loop through the clips to assign some listeners? It would look something like this:


            for (var j:Number = 0; j < helpArr.length; j++) {
                item[j].buttonMode = true;
                item[j].useHandCursor = true;
                item[j].mouseChildren = false;
                item[j].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,mouseOverItem);
            }
