I've a question regarding variable variable I was hoping someone could help me with:
All the examples in the manual have the entire variable name being variable e.g.
$a = "hello" and
$$a being the same as $hello
What I need to do, however, is append a variable portion to a constant prefix. So I
have a set of variables that are named $MYdog, $MYcat etc. and I need to do
$a = "dog"
${"MY$a"} being the same as $MYdog
Can this be done, and if so - how? I can't get it to work.
Jeff
