  repeat with i = 1 to the number of items of pKeys
    put item i of pData into lPPArray[(item i of pKeys)]
  end repeat

  return lPPArray
end gF_LoadPPRec

on mouseUp
local theArray
put gF_LoadPPRec(("abc" & tab & "xyz"), ("A" & tab & "B")) into theArray
put theArray["A"] && theArray["B"] into field "Report"
end mouseUp

Works for me. Well, in that trivial case.
