I apologize, I forgot all about "this" and remembered it right after sending the email to the list.

RE: [Flashcoders] accessing variables - AS3
You might also want to look into using this.hasOwnProperty(stringValue + "Amt") to make certain what you're looking for actually exists in the object in the first place. - MM ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

I think you can do this directly using getChildByName, or you can directly reference the parent object as Manish mentioned.

That would be: obj[stringValue + "Amt"] = someValue; where obj is the object that holds the property.

Re: [Flashcoders] accessing variables - AS3
this[stringValue + "Amt"] if you're trying to do it within the same class. On Mon, Jan 12, 2009 at 12:28 PM, Manish Jethani wrote: > On Tue, Jan 13, 2009 at 1:51 AM, Eric E.
