Create Variable Name from another Variable 1

[simpson]

I would like to create and assign a value to a variable, the name of the variable will be derived from another variable. is this possible under ksh.

Thanks

What do you mean by "derived" ?

Perhaps something like this:

$ X=test
$ eval AA$X=1234567890
$ echo $AAtest
1234567890
$ eval echo \$AA$X
1234567890
$ echo \$AA$X
$AAtest

hope this helps
