Re: Data Persistence

Putting text into a field pro-grammatically doesn't fire the openfield and closefield handlers so yes, you'd need to add code to your button. You can either write the code directly, or you can use send (or dispatch) and have the field do it.. IE send "closefield" to field "whateverfield"... But

Re: keeping keys of an array in the order they came in?

Have a separate list, or a special key that holds your list of keys. put empty into tArray repeat for each line tLine in tData put item 2 of tLine into tKey if tKey = EMPTY then next repeat put tLine & CR after tArray[tKey] put tKey & cr after tarray['myKeyList'] end repeat Then when you need to

Re: Search Values of Array in "One Go"

I'm with bob on this.. If for some reason you can't use the database that produced the array, shove the data into an sqlite db instead. In memory, or if you need persistence a db file. Alternatively, if you store your data flat rather than in an array. Then you can repeat for each line tline i

Re: Search Values of Array in "One Go"

I think you need to use ":memory:" as the name actually. It looks (from the sqlite docs) that supplying no name creates a temporary db file. And now i'm curious.. Is there a way to attach the file based db to a memory db? IE Open the file database, then use the info here: https://www.sqlite.org/l
