Richard, This generates the desired strings as we can see by looking at the FullForm. "file" <> ToString[#] & /@ Range[4] % // FullForm {"file1", "file2", "file3", "file4"} List["file1", "file2", "file3", "file4"] This generates the symbols. Symbol["file" <> ToString[#]] & /@ Range[4] % // FullForm {file1, file2, file3, file4} List[file1, file2, file3, file4] Functional programming is generally much easier than procedural programming.
