  Perhaps a silly question, but how do you create a reference in AS to
point to an object, i.e. an Image?

For example, if you have in the mxml:

<mx:Image id="pic1" source="images/thisimage.png" />
<mx:Image id="pic2" source="images/thatimage.png" />
<mx:Image id="pic3" source="images/nextimage.png" />

And I want to be able to do something like this in a function:

ref = "pic" + i;
ref.x = 100;

I ended up just creating all the image object in AS through a
loop/array and then could easily do this, but I am curious to know if
what I was originally trying to do is possible.

thanks
