Hi Everyone ... need a little bit of brain power

I use a SQLString to retrieve data from the following fields out of an
online database..

Size, Colour, Label, catno, url, Price ,stockId

This string is returned and placed in a text cast member

what I need to do know is format this cast member into a list[s] that mirror
the structure of the recordset ... I was thinking property lists

** items = the stock items from the relevent fields **

propList = [#size: [items],#colour: [items], #label: [items], \
#catno: [items], #url: [items],#price: [items], #stockID: [items]]

this is what I know:
- that the results from the database are TAB delimited
- that every 7 items = a row of data from the database

what I don't know:
- how to create the above propList from the returned results.
- is this the right solution ?

The reason for using property lists is because there will be search
implementation later on.

any wisdom and guidance will be forever appreciated.

cheers

b.
