Thanks but I really need a list (with a name).
Actually in the meantime I found out how to do that:
 files=(/var/tmp/exec.[[:digit:]]*)

But what is still bugging me is that this also matches files like
 /var/tmp/exec.01234.something

I can't figure out how to tell zsh that there shouldn't be anything _after_
digits.  What is the zsh-equivalent of a $ in regular expressions?

Thanks again,
 Andy.
