You are asking for a function "the elements of key[yourKey]" or "the elements of key[yourKey1][yourkey2][yourKey3}" This should be a feature request, like yesterday.

Sometimes I need to work with a "sub-dimension" only. For example: array[a][b][c][d] Each of those elements contains many other elements: [c][x][y][z] which each contain more elements: [c][x][1][2][3] Suppose I only want to work with [c][x] and all its sub-dimensions. Is there an efficient way to extract that into its own array without looping through all the [c] keys? -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com _______________________________________________ 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 _______________________________________________ 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
