One thing I didn't explain is that I used a Variant for the auto

No, I understood that you were thinking that -- it's just that this is fuzzy
thinking. Though a Variant can convert itself into any other type, what you're
converting it to when you pass it to Split is simply a string; Variants are not
involved thereafter.
I wasn't sure.
fuzzy thinking ? I like that! :) no: ;) yeah!!!
And the original idea waas to have a better styled example to pass data
to an array (to create PolyGon).
Yes, I'd suggest using the Array function for that.
OK.
BTW: the "start filling Array at position 1" have to be explained in the
Language Reference (documentation).
Agreed; I too hope that someday the good folks at RS will find a way to more
efficiently correct such errors in the docs.
It is very simple to do that; every technical writer will say that ! :)
Have a nice week-end,
Emile
