Thanks Tom!! Hadn't thought about using an array.
-----Original Message-----
SUB TEST
DIM M(1 to 3) as String
dim x as integer

M(1)="TWO"
M(2)="THREE"
M(3)="FOUR"

FOR X = 1 TO 3
MSGBOX M(X)

NEXT X

END SUB

is there a way for me to make the following procedure
work?
As I go through the loop each time, i'd like the
messagebox to pop up with the value denoted by
the variable. So the first time i go through,
the message TWO should pop up in the messagebox.
Thanks in advance.


SUB TEST
DIM M1,M2,M3 AS STRING
dim x as integer

M1="TWO"
M2="THREE"
M3="FOUR"

FOR X = 1 TO 3
MSGBOX "M"& X

NEXT X

END SUB
