Whenever you have a collection of variables whose names may be variable, an array is a natural fit.

LiveCode supports n-dimensional arrays, so you could use:

 -- Store:
 put "something" into tBigArray["1"]["text"]
 put "somethingelse" into tBigArray["2"]["text"]

 -- Retrieve:
 put tBigArray["1"]["text"] into tSomeVar
 put tBigArray["2"]["text"] into tAnotherVar
