I got the answer from "Halabund" in mathematica chatroom on freenode
--
To generate subscripted variables after subscript boxes are set to be
symbolized I need to:
vars=ToExpression /@ Table["\!\(k\_" <> ToString[i] <> "\)", {i, 1,
10}]
Apparently this is described in tutorial/StringRepresentationOfBoxes.
This page seems hard to find in Mathematica 6, I don't see it linked
from any related pages.
