value() does not work on string ( transform() ). If you want to recreate a transform() at runtime, you will have to set each one of its 16 values: t = transform() t[1] = t1 .. t[16] = t16 A simpler way of achieving that is to use vList xtra, which is free for what you want to do (save your Lingo lists in external binary files). The Xtra saves transform() data and automatically recreates the transform() at runtime when reading back the file in memory. -- Daniel Devolder Check my vList Xtra for saving Lingo values and lists with optional ZIP compression and encryption http://www.updatestage.com/xtras/vlist.html Your friendly spanish Director MMUG is at: http://flash.to/director [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
