Evaluating a variable within a variable |

Hi,
my problem is best desrbied with a simple example as follows. I know that
technically it is not correct but it illustrates what I am struggling to
achieve.
#########
main_auth=7
f=main
t=auth
ile=$f"_"$t
echo $ile
########
I want the output from echo on the line above to be 7. The main_auth=7 will
be read from a separate file in due course.
I hope that is clear enough.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks Cheers Tim
