VB Script Creating variable on the fly returned Error Automation type not supported

I have list of variables in an include files which is looks like:

var_1 = "string"
var_2 = "string"

on the main file i need variable created on the fly so i do

' somewhere i have the num variable
Execute("new_var = var_"&int(num))

Exactly on the execute line i got this error

Microsoft VBScript runtime  error '800a01ca'
Variable uses an Automation type not supported in VBScript

Execute("new_var = var_"&int(num))

but

Execute("new_var = var_"&num)

Use arrays to acheive this sort of thing:-

ReDim var(1)

var(0) = "String"
var(1) = "String"

''# somewhere I have the num variable
new_var = var(num)
