[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] Button Names

Hey hypertalkers
  I have a small prob here... I have a card in which lots of buttons are
being created and deleted via scripts.. the only problem that arises is
due to the fact that the button names are numbers.. relevant to the stack.
Thus when I try to delete the card button "3" say, the name is passed in
via "buttonnum", and when it tries to delete card button buttonnum, it, as
you may expect, deletes card button _number_ buttonnum rather than the
button _named_ buttonnum.  Any ideas??
