It's not that the cause... If u write "/:damncounter:desplazamiento" u are
accessing a variable called "desplazamiento" within another variable called
"damncounter", and that's not possible (nested variables within variables...
sounds strange,eh??)

As I told u on the other mail (don't know why doesn't arrive...) u must
write ":desplazamiento" as a string and concatenate it with the previous
declarations. It should look that way:

Set Variable "letter"&damncounter&":desplazamiento" = .....

Supossing u have "damncounter" declared within the MC (anyway doesn't matter
if u want the first value of "damncounter" to be "0", if u haven't it
declared Flash assigns a value
of "0" by default...)

Hope this solves the problem ;)

Bye

Ummmmmm,

I get a syntax error in the following line:

Set Variable: "/letter"&/:damncounter:desplazamiento = /:direccion

It seems I can't use a "/" if I have a string as part of the variable.
Anyone else has got the same problem?
