Programatically setting bits in a byte

[joe rocci]

I'd like to be able to set arbitrary bits in a byte under algorithmic control like this:

dim myByte as byte
dim myBit as whatever_it_needs_to_be

myByte = somevalue
myBit = some_bit_descriptor

Set myByte.myBit on
or
myByte.myBit = 1

This doesn't seem to work. Is there another way to accomplish the same thing?
