What is wrong with this code

I just wanted to assign the filename to a variable

filename="abc"
datestrng=`date +%Y%m%d`
filextn="txt"


"LOCAL_FILE"${i}=${filename}"_"${datestrng}"."${filextn}

echo "LOCAL_FILE"${i}


I get the following error on 2nd last line

ksh: LOCAL_FILE1=abc_20081114.txt: not found
