Hmmm... I don't understand very well... I guess you will do anything with
such variables?
If you have 100 numbers, you can assign a temporary variable name to each
one if you use a repeat loop. Eg:
x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
set my100Numbers to {2,7,72} --> which are only three ;-)
repeat with x in my100Numbers
--> every loop (will be 3 loops), "x" will take a different value
display dialog (x as text) --> first loop: 2, second one: 7 & third: 72.
end repeat
x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
Perhaps if you describe your wishes more exhaustivelly...
Cheers!
