Hi Steve,
arrayEncode outputs an array in binary form (for binary storage or
transfer), not text. When you need to transform array into list do:
combine myArray using return and tab. After this array myArray becomes a
list of key-value pairs:
key value
key value
key value
...
key value
Now if you do
split myArray by return and tab
myArray becomes an array again.

Hi all,
I'm storing data in an application using arrays and I need to save
these out to a file.
I've serialised the data using the arrayEncode function but can't
decode it back again.
The structure of the save file is to place a marker such as
<productList>, add a return character, then the serialised array,
another return character and then a closing marker, </productList> in
this case.
When viewed in a text editor, it looks like:
<productsList>
random characters
more randomeness
</productsList>
Using lineOffSet, I'm finding the first and last lines of the
serialised array. It's when I come to decode the array that it falls
over.
Any pointers? Is this the best way to save arrays to text?
Thanks in advance,
Steve
