Assigning structure tag names from variables? [message #43000]

Is there any way to use a variable as the name of a structure tag? For
instance:

tagnamevar='mytagname'
somedata=1.2
structurename={tagnamevar:somedata}
print,tag_names(structurename)

Returns, as you IDL'ers know,
TAGNAMEVAR and not MYTAGNAME

Thoughts?
