John, thanks I was typing a reply, and realized I had not tested something. OB GET ARRAY(Object;Property;Object_Array) when the 'object array' is not an object array.
if the array in the object is NOT an actual object array, then Object_Array is set to the size of the array inside the object, BUT all elements are 'undefined'. so.. if I find an array, I can extract it into an object array, and if element 1 is undefined it is NOT an actual object array, and if element 1 is defined then it is an abject array and I can recursively call my new find in object array method!
