Creating str variable collection

[stupomer]

Hi Gintaras,
I was wondering how to write into a str collection
For example

say str is samplecollection

I eventually want it to be filled like this...

Code:

Copy      Help

str samplecollection=
samplevar1
samplevar2
samplevar3
samplevar4

However, I won't know these ahead of time or the total number.

I geuss as each variable gets a value, I could then match it to a pre-defined collection
such as...

Code:

Copy      Help

specificvar1=samplevar1
specificvar2=samplevar2
str samplecollection
samplevar1
samplevar2
samplevar3
samplevar4

Since I won't know the total number, I could create a whole bunch extra and then ignore them if they are zero in value.

Thanks for any tips!!!!

I don't understand this.

Why not ARRAY(str)?
