This is technically correct, thank you. Except your solution takes it for
granted that 
we always want the new associative array keys to be named
'master_names'.$index, but 
that is not the case.
 
The new keys must take on the name of the original array variable name
whatever it was, 
more like so:
 
$Any_Variable_Name = array('joe', 'adam', 'alex');
$master_new   = array( );
 
while(list($index, $value) = each($Any_Variable_Name))
{
    $master_new[$Any_Variable_Name. $index] = $value;
}

 
Thank you.
Peter

<?php

$master_new   = array( );

{
    $master_new['master_names' . $index] = $value;

Go ahead chuckle it up. But, yes, I need this one little one. 
I begin with a numerically indexed array of elements (could be any length):
 
$master_names  = array("Joe", "Sam", "Tom" ... )
 
I need to rename all the array elements as to make a matching consistent
associative array.
And... the keys in the associative array must be derived from combining the
name of the array 
(in this example 'master_names') with the correct former index value
appended on the end of 
each new key:
 
$master_names = array('master_names0'=>"Joe", 'master_names1'=>"Sam,
'master_names2'=>"Tom" ... ) 
 
 
OR
 
$master_names[0]="Joe"
$master_names[1]="Sam"
$master_names[2]="Tom"
 
becomes...
 

$master_names['master_names0']="Joe"
$master_names['master_names1']="Sam"
$master_names['master_names2']="Tom"
 
 
Yes, that is it.
