Hi jbv, What version of LC are you using? Here’s a quote from the LC 8.1.10 dictionary: “Starting in version 7.0 it is possible to modify the container variable inside a for each loop without affecting the iterations of the loop.” Could this be biting you? .Jerry > On Mar 25, 2019, at 2:44 PM, jb

Hi again, I finally solved the problem by modifying the loop as follows : repeat for each line j in cc get item 1 of j add 1 to it put return & it & "," & item 2 of j after var2 end repeat But I still don't understand why the previous version led to unexpected values...
