Man, where the heck does my mail go when I push the Send to opendx
button?
I sent this at 1030 am this morning, and it just arrived at opendx at
1030 pm this evening!

It's an unfortunate and annoying limitation of Format. I've needed to
do 5-vectors recently and was initially baffled by the cryptic error
message until I reread the help and saw it only does up to 3-vector.
Only solution was to decompose the vector and build the string by
hand. Probably worth duplicating a macro like the one I have that
accepts a 4-vector and via 4 Computes and 4 Outputs returns the 4
components. Then you can pipe them all to Format with template "[%f,
%f, %f, %f]" (suit your %f to taste, say %6.4f).

I have a field in which the positions component is a 4-vector, ie
each data component
has associated with it four numbers in the positions component. I
want to selected a single
component from the positions component and format it for output.
So far I have extracted the positions component from the field and
used select to choose the item I want to output to screen, but the
format module does not like the 4-vector. Any ideas?
