[Gambas-user] Eval, and "Eval" for assignment?

Q1. Why does something like this fail with "Unknown symbol" please?

PRINT Eval("lblMaterial" & "6")

Q2. I have a set of consecutively named labels (lblMaterial0, 
lblMaterial1, and so on) to which I want to assign text values from a 
database. Eval() is clearly not designed for assignment purposes, so 
what's the cleanest way to do this in gambas please?

I'm looking for a solution like

FOR EACH dbResult
   ??Eval??("lblMaterial" & CStr(iC)).Text = dbResult!value
   ic += 1
NEXT


Thanks.
