Thank you BvG. Persistence by putting an array into a property makes sense kinda... It was the syntax that had me fooled.
If I have understood the system, then 1. set the dinnerNames["mains"] of this stack to "tex" - good 2. set the dinnerNames["mains"]["spicy"] of this stack to "tex" - bad! because [1] is a single dimension array property [2] is a multi-dimensional array variable but [3] we can 'set' a single dimension property to a multi-dimensional array which is what I need to do. Nice tutorial, by the way... >I have written an advanced tutorial (read: confusing) on various >uses for multidimensional arrays when having tab delimited data: http://lessons.runrev.com/spaces/lessons/buckets/784/lessons/9678-How-do-I-c onvert-tab-delimited-data-into-an-array- /H _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
