I want to put  all the maker names in a movie into a list.  then be able
manipulate that list.
All the marker names are numbers.  1,2,3 ect.

                  put [] into gMarkerList
                  set gMarkerList=the labelList
                  put count (gMarkerList) into X     --causes error
message
                  put getAt(gMarkerList, random(X)) into Y
                  go to Y

But I get the error message

            Script error Handler not defined.
            put count (gMarkerList) into X
            #count

Pranav suggested:
 --    My guess is that you need to use the markerlist instead of the
labelList.
 --    The labelList contains a string while the markerlist contains a
list.

I'm using Dir 5 and can't find a " markerList".  I suspect this is
something from a later version.
Is there a way to change a string into a list?
Should I just put "the labelList" into a text field and use it that way?

What I want to do is make a list of all the marker names then pick one
at random and go to it.  Each marker marks the start of a 3 frame
sequence at the end of the 3rd frame I want the marker removed from the
list and the play back head moved to another random marker in the list.

Thanks for any help.
