[ic] Using options to change SKU

Hello all,
I have a catalog which includes several similar products which vary in
physical characteristics (color and if there's a string attached) and
price.
The catalog is currently set up so that every variance is represented as
a separate item. For example, if you buy a red item with a string, it
is different from a blue item with a string or a red item without a
string. Each of these items has its own SKU, for instance 100RS
(red/string), 100BN (blue/nostring), 100RN (red/nostring).
We would like to have all of these products represented as a single
item, with the customer given the ability to choose color and whether or
not a string is attached when they're adding the item to their cart.
What options method do I need to use to do this? Is there an easy way to
dynamically calculate a product's SKU at the time it's being added to
the cart so that we don't need to maintain so many versions of the same
item?
Thanks,
Peter
