Hi Oakley

It's quite easy to do this, however you need to define Varx seperately:

set ListAnimals to ""
set Var1 to "Cat"
set Var2 to "Dog"
set Var3 to "Horse"
set Var4 to "Bird"

set ListAnimals to {}

repeat with x from 1 to 4
set varx to "Var" & x
set ListAnimals to ListAnimals & varx
end repeat

ListAnimals

G'day

This DOES NOT WORK!

It returns  {"Var1", "Var2", "Var3", "Var4"}

because you're creating a text string with the line set varx to "Var" & x, not a variable.

Regards

Santa
