This is certainly a very fast and elegant method. The problem is,
that one of the items, here item 2 (a name), may not be unique.
So, in case "Müller" is among the names, this slight change may help:

repeat for each line L in theData
   put space & item 2 of L after A1[item 1 of L]
   put space & item 1 of L after A2[item 2 of L]
end repeat will

Not a one-liner!

set the columnDelimiter to ";"
split myList by column -- your original delimiter separated list of two columns
put myList[2] into mySecondArray[1]
put myList[1] into mySecondArray[2]
combine mySecondArray by column
split mySecondArray by CR and “;”

Re: Rich Text Editor features within a LC8/LC9 app?

[Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode]

Roger,
thanks for your post. This helped
I have so far now a working toolbar with bold, italic, underline, textsize and 
alignment. The buttons all use one single behaviour script.
Your sample put me in the right direction. 

I will post my solution later next week to this list for those who are 
interested in it.

Thanks again.

Regards,
Matthias
