You can simply store an array variable as a customPropertySet:
set the customProperties[addresses] of this stack to addressArray
You can then set individual elements of the stored array:
set the addresses[key] of this stack to someItem
And retrieve the indidvidual elements:
get the
Thanks Mark,
I was hoping to have an array of arrays, but can certainly make it work
using a range of custompropertysets.

John, it'd be great to have arrays of arrays, but that doesn't seem
to be something we should hold our breath for.
However, using multiple key arrays, customPropertySets and a writing
few functions to filter the keys of them can go a long way..
Best,

actually, I use arrays of arrays all the time:
make a text list like this:

each textlist property could be made into an
