cool... unlearned something new today (sorry, Peter)... and learned to try the code before trusting the code!

:-)

my original response to the OP was that he was calculating a variable name and asked what the exercise was trying to teach.

What?  That doesn't make any sense at all.  You end up with
ListAnimals equal to {"Var1", "Var2", "Var3", "Var4"}.  I assume the
goal is to have ListAnimals equal to {"Cat", "Dog", "Horse",
"Bird"}...

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

Hi All
Can this be done?
It says Var is not defined.
How do I fix this?

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
copy (Var & x) to ListAnimals
end repeat
ListAnimals
Thanks
Oakley
