This morning it seemed natural enough to me to take this data:

ID    Name      Email
101   Richard   [email protected]

...and turn that into an array where the first line determines the key names and the second line consists of the values using this:

  split tData by column with cr and tab

I found that when splitting by column the "with" clause throws an error.

Such cases are for data so small that I don't mind writing a loop to create the array. But it seems common enough that I would imagine others have tried this and met with similar disappointment that it's not already built in.

Or is it?  Is there some other syntax I might try to do that?
