Hi Chris,

Basically, yes. But it is good coding practice to make code that may be used in multiple places into its own handler (even better to make it a handler of a parent script, but that can wait for now).

So instead, you would do something similar to the following:

put listToString(myLinearList) into field("entry")

where myLinearList is the list you want to convert to a string.

Regards,

Daniel

and if you just want to jam a list into a string variable (since the operation to put it into a field is slooow, & unless you need to see it) then you can do this:


tVariable = ""
tVariable = string(myLinearList)

 Hi Daniel,
 Thank you for your response! I'm rather vague on how the listToString
 functions.......do I then say something like:

put linearListOfStrings into field "entry" ?
