Arrays of field controls

[MisterX]

just name your fields as

data1
data2
data3

then in your loop

repeat with x = 1 to azillion
  put field ("data"&x) into array[x] 
end repeat

if your fields are already alligned like having a field 1, field 2, etc..
you dont even need to name them!
put fld x into array[x]

cheers
X[array]
