FLASH: Dynamic Variable issue

[Wang, Andy]

I'm currently consturcting a multipage audio synced tutorial of sorts. I

have made this logic to be used as a template for making more of these

movies. Its setup to hope to the next page at a _currentframe variable if

they've been there. A lot of the variable is setup so that the user cant do

anything until the end of each movie is loaded. This all work fine at this

point.


My biggest issue is that I would like to name a variable name to be dynamic.

I've beeen setting it up so far. Below is my action script in the first

frame. I can setup the if/then statment w/ the right dynmaic variable name,

[ If ("_level0:POS"&page gt "0") ], but i can not set it up correctly for

the goto variable. For the sake of this email I'll call "_level0:POS"&page

as POSx.  POSx is set by the pageup button from the next movie. It'll store

the current frame onto _level0:POSx, movies are loaded in layer 3. So when

they come back to this movie again, I want the user to go to the frame

number stored in _level0:POSx. Now here's my question, (thx for staying w/

me all this time... ) is there a way for me to set the GOTO tag to be

dynamic like my If/THEN statements? I've tried:


Go to and Stop ("_level0:POS"&page) 


But didnt seem to work. Did I just did something wrong? or I can not set it

up like that?

Anyone have any links, suggestions, FAQ sheet, or ideas?


Thanks in advance.
