Thanks Trevor. I expect to be on my own with LibDatabase now. I can understand your focus is on Sql Yoga right now.

But when an array is returned with a result set, there are no column names. There is another weird problem with quotation marks. I'm using Rev on Vista at the moment. I see from the zip file containing LibDatabase that it was prepared on OS X. LibDatabase relies on multi-item array names, where some of the items are quoted. That causes a problem within LibDatabase when it looks for values by key within arrays. The quotation marks do not register any problem in the Script Editor. But they are not the same charToNum on windows i.e. on Windows quote is something like 34, whereas the quotation marks in the arrray names are something like char 143 (I don't have Rev installed on this machine). So, I think there is a macToISo issue in Rev itself. I understand it is supposed to be applied automatically to stacks when Rev opens. I seem to have come across an issue like this a couple of years ago. I may try to get round this quotation character issue and see if that fixes the lack of column names (maybe there is some magic going on in LibDatabase when it looks for Valentina column names).
