Forms Data Controls :: Dynamic Dictionary + Literals

I'm new to c# and .net but I think what I'm trying to do is fairly simple, however I think I'm getting stuck on variable types.So I have say 6 literal webcontrol myReq1, myReq2, myReq3.... and rather than implicitly setting them line by line I just want to run through a loop and set them dynamically. So to do this I've set up a dictionary that will contain the name of each literal, I can then run through those to add the data. This all works when I set up the dictionary by hand ie

Dictionary<int, Literal> myReqDict = new Dictionary<int, Literal>();
myReqDict.Add(0, myReq1);
myReqDict.Add(1, myReq2);[code]...

Obviously the Text inserted would be dynamic too, but you get the idea, so all that works just fine, but I'd like to do the Add part of the dictionary dynamically as well and that's where I'm running into trouble, I want to do something like:

Dictionary<int, Literal> myReqDict = new Dictionary<int, Literal>();
for(int cnt = 0; cnt<7 ;cnt+= 1){
myReqDict.Add(cnt, "myReq"+(cnt+1));
}

However this isn't valid, I can see why the "myReq"+(cnt+1) would not be valid as it's a String rather than a literal, but how can I convert the String to the Literal? What I am confused about is why the cnt on Add also isn't accepted, it is typed as an Int so to my mind it should be accepted
