Hey thanks everyone for you help on this question.   I'm a bit far down the track to start using Collections and Lists of lists but Robert's suggestion looks as if it will do just fine.   Thanks very much   Mark ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Sent: Thursday, May 03, 2001 5:21 PM Subject: Re[2]: [DUG]: Accessing 'Fields' in a String List A possible ...
