I was thinking it over and I came up to sth like that
firstly define the type



and then I'd need a function like this



but, the problem is, i want objectID to be "object+ID", example, if I would call function



I want the function to run like this



Soo.. How can I make a variable by having a string and another variable? (in other words - Object1 created from "Object" and ID when ID=1 ). heelp..

You can't do it that way, you must use an array.
This code shows how to use an array in order to store data of different objects :

FYI: Functions don't interact with the rest of the program's variables because it uses it's own "private" variables. So functions are like small programs within programs. If you want to make your variables accessible to the rest of the program you have to declare them globally at the beginning of the program as so:
Global thisisavariable as Integer
Notice you need to specify the type of data too. Check the DBpro help files.

Hope I wasn't sounding smarty-pantyish there
