Variable references to objects

Question

OK, I've got a 15x3 grid of dynamic text fields in an object called "textbox" that I want to reference through a for loop, so I don't have to have 45 lines of code for assigning stuff to those fields.
I have each dynamic field named by their placement in the grid, so, c0a, c0b, c0c, c1a, c1b, c1c, etc.
I can also name them c00, c01, c02, if necessary.
I tried:
for (i=0; i<15; i++) {
   textbox.c[i]a.text = "Cell " + i + " A";
   textbox.c[i]b.text = "Cell " + i + " B";
   textbox.c[i]c.text = "Cell " + i + " C";
but that gives me a syntax error.
I also tried naming them c00, c01, c02, c10, c11, c12, etc., so I could do a double nested loop:
for (i=0; i<15; i++) {
     for (n=0; n<3; n++) {
          textbox.c[i][n].text = "Cell " + i + n;
but that gives me a syntax error too.
So, is there a way to access all of these with a for loop, or am I going to have to do it the long way?
(I'm using AS2)

You are close but not quite as far as using the bracket notations with strings to target objects.  You need to build the entire string inside the brackets...
for (i=0; i<15; i++) {
   textbox["c"+i+"a"].text = "Cell " + i + " A";
   textbox["c"+i+"b"].text = "Cell " + i + " B";
   textbox["c"+i+"c"].text = "Cell " + i + " C";
And you could use String(i) in place of just i in the brackets to be more correct, but in AS2 it is less picky that way.
