[flexcoders] dynamic variable reference getting error 1084

var tmp:String = tabnav1; [tmp].selectedIndex = 0; Im trying to use a string to reference an item but the compiler wont allow the brackets, i remember Tracy telling me to reference a dynamic variable use brackets? my compiler says error 1084: Syntax error: expecting identifier before dot.
