```auto

var fruit1:String = "apples";         
var fruit2:String = "oranges";         
var fruit3:String = "grapes";         
                
counter = 1;

while (counter < 4) {
trace("You have " + fruit + counter);

trace (fruit1); 
counter++;
}

```

I need the variable fruit1, but for reasons I don’t have time to get into, I don’t know how to parse these two variables to make a parseable variable. If you know what I mean.

:crazy:
