Unfortunately, there is no way to use a string as a variable. So
what you will need to do is to use some other method:
Function GetMyPicture(name As String) As Picture
Select Case name
Case "cat"
Return CatPicture
Case "dog"
Return DogPicture
Case "elephant"
Return ElephantPicture
Else
Return Nil // requested picture doesn't exist
End Select
End Function
Efficient, but quite boring to install when you have 200+ pictures...
