you could also initialize your matrix like <font face="Arial"
size="2"><span class="734024409-09092011">
<pre style="FONT-STYLE: normal; FONT-FAMILY: Monospaced; FONT-SIZE: 14px"><span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)">string_matrix = emptystr(4,8);
and then fill what you need.
Finally, you can also use lists, which allow heterogenous content
</span></pre>
</span></font>A(1)="FileNb"+string(1:4)'<br>
A(2)="C:/Rep"+string(1:4)'<br>
A(3) = "fct"+string(1:4)'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
and i believe "cells" can be usefull too. Try help cell<br>
