You could also look at using a TObjectList instead of an array to hold the
stringlists.
It has the added advantage of freeing the objects when the list item is
deleted.
>From D5 help:
TObjectList maintains a list of (owned) objects.
Unit
contnrs
Description
Use a TObjectList to store and maintain a list of objects. TObjectList
provides properties and methods to add, delete, rearrange, locate, access,
and sort objects. If the OwnsObjects property is set to True (the default),
TObjectList controls the memory of its objects, freeing an object when its
index is reassigned; when it is removed from the list with the Delete,
Remove, or Clear method; or when the TObjectList instance is itself
destroyed.
