Hi,

I am facing a little problem while dealing with arrays some hellp will be really appreciated.

I have two arrays in AS3

```auto
var F1array:Array = new Array("&#304;brahim YILMAZ", "Yetmi&#351; Dokuz (79)", "Emekli I&#351;çi","Dedem / Babam&#305;n babas&#305;","Giresun");
var F2array:Array = new Array("Fatma YILMAZ", "Seksen (80)", "Ev Han&#305;m&#305;","Babaannem / Babam&#305;n annesi","Giresun");

```

Now I have two buttons on the Stage named F1 and F2

When any of the two button are clicked an openiframe function is called which is:

```auto
function openiframe(e:MouseEvent):void {
	
	memberName=e.target.name + "array";
	trace(memberName); /////// gives me either F1array or F2array
	
}
	

```

Now how will we fetch something from the array a**s memberName[0] obviously wont work.** I tried doing them a few other ways but wasn’t successful. How will we tackle this problem?

Once again it might be a simple problem but I cant figure it out. Any help will be really appreciated. Thanks in advance

Best Regards,
