Reb	Anyway to get a name of an item and throw into a string?

Vexorian	No there isn't, how do I know you ask? Even Darky used a big Itemname String Array to get the items' names

Ligature	I had this problem too... Something that might help you: every item has "Item Life" which is a real value that can be between 1 and 500,000. Also, every item has an "Item Level" which you can set between 0 and 8. If you do use the "Item Life," make sure you don't allow any units to attack Items, or you'll be able to magically change what item you've got by attacking it.

Or when you are going to check an item with a trigger increase the item's life by 999999, and it will get its maximum life again
