I have an elaborate routine that sorts through my stacks to find the needed variables, and it saves the array, with the name as a key and the variable type as a property, in my master stack. ("set the swizzle of stack whosit to myArray")
This gets used as an integrity check when opening data tables. So put the swizzle of stack whosit into dflds put "dlPdTx" is among the keys of dflds Yields false. So does every variant I can come up with--looping through the keys, checking "the words of the keys of", and so forth. Even "put the keys of dflds into dnames" and checking whether dlPdTx is among the words or lines. Nonetheless, I can see the entry dlPdTx in each and every one of these, whether as a word or line, or as a key in either the custom property of that property copied to dflds. Could there be a glitch in either the storage or retrieval of the custom property? I used save the property as a list back in 7, and turn it back into an array. -- Dr. Richard E. Hawkins, Esq.
