Can you get the name of a subtable as string?

[Bl4ckSh33p]

Hi. I have something like this:

MyTable
-->Modname1
------>File1
------>File2
------>File3
------>File4
-->Modname2
------>File1
------>File5
------>File6
-->Modname3
------>File1
------>File2
------>File7
------>File9

After some loops and string.find I got a result and want to save which Subtable (modname1-3) the result was found in. But when I try to use the subtable AMS shows an error and tells me I need to enter a string (cause its a table). Is it possible to get the name of the table as string without having to add a new sub entry for Name=x ?

If you are trying to access the name of a variable, no - that won't work. You may need to add a key to store the name as a string, or rethink how you are storing the information.
