repeat with n=1 to 64
  get short name of fld n
  put char 1 of it into x -- x is a letter and we need to switch it to a 
number
  put charToNum(x) - 64 into x -- assuming you are using capital letters: 
A=1, B=2
  put char 2 of it into y

  -- build the transcript instruction so that from Rev's vantage point it is 
formatted right
  put "put fld" && n && "into array["& x &comma& y &"]" into 
transcriptInstruction
  do transcriptInstruction -- 'do' is a transcript command, see docs
end repeat
