Ricki, based on your sample it looks as though you can use the Split function.
arrRace = Split(strReturn, ", ", -1, vbTextCompare) where strReturn is "African, African - American, Aleutian, American Indian, Asian, Bangladeshi, Bhutanese, Brazilian" HTH -----Original Message----- From: Ricki Williams [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 02, 2002 2:37 PM To: ActiveServerPages Subject: convert string to array I know this has to be simple, but I'm not finding the answer and I've never tried it before. I have a list box where they can make multiple selections. A sample return from the box is: African, African - American, Aleutian, American Indian, Asian, Bangladeshi, Bhutanese, Brazilian My question is, how do I loop through this string and change it into an array so I can loop through it for later processing? Or should I even convert it to an array if I can loop through the string just as easily? If that's the case, then I'm still back to - How do I loop through a string? thanks, Ricki --- You are currently subscribed to activeserverpages as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to %%email.unsub%% --- You are currently subscribed to activeserverpages as: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
