I need variable costs

I need to make the (mineral) cost of an ability be determined by the value of a certain (custom) variable of the unit that uses the ability. Any ideas?

EDIT: Oh, there will be many units of this type, all with the same ability, not all owned by the same player.

Shameless bump. I know you all hate me and that I suck and am useless, but this is getting ridiculous.

If there aren't too many possibilities you could do something like this:
Code
Change Ability
   Events
       What ever it is that changes your variable
   Conditions
       Your wanted variable == 1
   Actions
       Tech Tree - Allow the wanted ability for player 1
       Tech Tree - Disallow the first unwanted ability for player 1
       Tech Tree - Disallow the second unwanted ability for player 1


Then just set the ability up how they have it setup at a building (level 1 on top of 2 on top of 3) and I think that'll work.
