I guess I "overkilled" it as usual. Oh well - glad it works!

Hi Phil, Thanks very much. You solved my problem. I was unaware of "delete variable myArray[tKey]" That is very fast. It appears that this works as well: repeat for each key tKey in the keys of arrayOne delete variable arrayTwo[tKey] end repeat This provided a very simple way to "subtract" elements of one array from the other. Thanks again, JimHi Jim, I suppose you could do a union (yielding a 3rd array) and an intersect (yielding a 4th array) and then remove the intersect elements from the union array. It's not what you wanted but it would work. Like so: put arrayOne into intersectA intersect intersectA with arrayTwo put arrayOne into unionA union unionA with arrayTwo repeat for each key tKey in intersectA delete variable unionA[tKey] end repeat -- now unionA contains the anti-intersection (?) of the two original arrays Phil Davis_______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
