First there was sliced bread...
Then there was LC text parsing...
Then came ARRAYS!

Yeah, you can use the same handler because order doesn't matter. It
sounded from your description like the barcode was unique to 1 item, so it
should work dandy. Once the array is built (assuming you decide to leave
it as an array and not combine it) the array is keyed by the barcode so its
easy

Arrays are so useful in so many contexts that they're well worth
spending an afternoon exp
ot;csv2") of fld "csv2" &
return after temp
end repeat
put temp into fld "Upload File"
end mouseUp

Please
s rule the procedure. Nor does it matter anymore if the lists are not
of the same length. Arrays automatically manage all that.

On another note, are you an old Hypercard user? I noticed you used the term
"cd fld".

Hi All,
I have two, two column lists. Each list has the same barcode item (item 1). The
second item in the first list is a username, and the second item in the second
list is a serial number. I am trying to combine the username and serial number
into one list. I have about 1000 lines in each li
16 matches
