Hi, I have a bunch of dynamic textfields on the main timeline. Each has its own instance name t0, t1, t2 … t25. This might sound stupid but how can I use a loop to put them into the array?

This is my simple “non-loop” code :doh:

```auto
var lettersArray:Array = new Array();
lettersArray.push(t0);
lettersArray.push(t1);
lettersArray.push(t2);
//add the rest here
trace(lettersArray); //[object TextField],[object TextField],[object TextField]

```
