Woot! Also, I think I will get more involved in the dev cycle this time. I am so hesitant to develop along 2 lines because my project is live. But I think I can work it out.

I tries using commas with the default itemdelimiter that doesn't work. I replaced "|" with cr and used lineOffset that doesn't work. Finally, I DELETED THE FIRST VERTICAL BAR AND THAT WORKED!!!!! So this bug is about having an empty first item/line. In this case offset will always return 0. Not good. Yes I have submitted a bug report. I will update it, but hopefully I can keep this from biting anyone else in the butt. It is also going to make it really difficult to do LIKE queries on list columns. Hopefully this gets fixed soon, because I depend on this kind of list queries a LOT. Hi Bob, Your bug report is http://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=18343. We've already got a fix for it, but unfortunately the fix wasn't quite in time for the 8.1.1 cut off. It will be included in 8.1.2.
