I made the same mistake a while ago, until I remembered that the encoded
array is binary. You have to write and read it to/from a binary file. If
you just use "open file" you get text only.

Hi all.
I'm running 9.6.7 rc2. I have this code in a closeStackRequest handler:
put the settings of me into tSettingsA
put field "fldEAFilePath" into tSettingsA ["eafilepath"]
put field "fldInvFilePath" into tSettingsA ["invfilepath"]
put field "fldOutFilePath" into tSettingsA ["Outfilepath"]
put the dgText [true] of group "dgVariance" into tSettingsA ["gridtext"]
put arrayEncode(tSettingsA) into tSettingsText
put the filename of this stack into tSettingsPath
set the itemDelimiter to "/"
put "settings.prefs" into item -1 of tSettingsPath
open file tSettingsPath for write
write tSettingsText to file tSettingsPath
close file tSettingsPath
Then in the openStack handler I have this:
put the filename of this stack into tSettingsPath
set the itemDelimiter to "/"
put "settings.prefs" into item -1 of tSettingsPath
open file tSettingsPath for read
read from file tSettingsPath until eof
put it after tSettingsText
close file tSettingsPath
put arrayDecode(tSettingsText) into tSettingsA
set the settings of me to tSettingsA
Instead of an array, I get the text "gr" which is the first 2 characters of
the key "grid text" in the array. That can't be right!
