Do I need to do some sort of "PRINT" to be able to use the variable $ucount as a 'modifier' so it should use this code:

You mean you want to do something like:

for my $ix (1..10){
     $textarea[$ix-1] = param('textarea' . $ix);
}

I'm not sure I'd use a separate variable where an array would make more sense. Hence my use of the array @textarea in my example.
