Support an Array of Strings

I am using Sinumerik 840D control where I can define array of variables of type Text String, for example:

DEF STRING[20] List_of_Subroutines[11]
this block defines eleven Text variables with names List_of_Subroutines[1], List_of_Subroutines[2],..., List_of_Subroutines[11]

List_of_Subroutines[1]="mill_1"
List_of_Subroutines[2]="turn_1"
...
List_of_Subroutines[11]="bla-bla"
Here I assign values to variables defined.

DEF INT Current_sub=4
Defining another variable

EXTCALL List_of_Subroutines[Current_sub]
So now I can call the subroutine with name of variable value List_of_Subroutines[4]

Question is How can I realize this logic in VERICUT?
As I know the current release does not support Array of Strings.
How can I evade this restriction?  :?

It is not currently possible to assign 'string' data to array elements as you say.  I am currently discussing the possibility of this being implemented in Vericut. Please send a set of files to technical support which demonstrate this problem and can be entered as a  Enhancement Request
