Thanks, Klaus, although, perhaps, not quite as well documented as "combine" - it is unclear that the "split" actually takes place ' within' a variable; as, for example:
put fld "fDELTEXT" into PPROCESS --where fDLETEXT contains text from a previously combined array-- split PPROCESS by return and colon I expected the 'split' to be involved with the transfer process from the Text/Fld to an array variable rather than something that transforms a string variable into a string array . . so went up some blind alleys for about 10 minutes. sincerely, Richmond Mathewson ____________________________________________________________ "Philosophical problems are confusions arising owing to the fluidity of meanings users attach to words and phrases."
