naming nodes in foreach

[Michael George]

I'd like to use foreach to set up a structure of nodes in a diagram, but
then refer back to individual nodes.  The nodes aren't in a grid, so I
can't use matrices.  However, tikz seems to forget all of the nodes I
define within a foreach.  I'd like to do something like the following:

\foreach \i in {0, 1, 2}
   \node (node-\i) at (...) {...);

\draw (node-0) -- (node-2);

is it possible?

Thanks!

The example you provide seems to work exactly as you want.
This works fine here:

\begin{tikzpicture}
\foreach \i in {0, 1, 2}
   \node (node-\i) at (\i,\i) {\i};

\draw (node-0) -- (node-2);
\end{tikzpicture}
