Yes it is - once you use more than one set of bracketed keys, you're into multiple dimensions. > If it is I am thus thinking "in effect" that wArray1[23]= "fred" 4 6 > 24 "T1.2" Well, actually wArray[23] contains an *array* that has the "theword", "wlength", "theline", "theoffset" and "theRef" keys in it. For example: put wArray[23] into tArray put tArray["theword"] --> "fred" put tArray["wlength"] --> 4 (etc.) > If it is, how can I store this array in a custom property? > > Will a line such as "set the customProperties["cpWordarray"] of this > stack to wArray1" store the whole array? Yes, but you can't use multiple dimensions with custom property set access directly. That is, if you try to do: put the cpWordArray["23"]["theword"] of this stack you'll get an error since although custom properties can contain arrays, they can't be addressed with multiple dimensions. So you needto do it in multiple steps: put the cpWordArray["23"] into tArray put tArray["theword"] --> "fred" HTH, Ken Ray Sons of Thunder Software, Inc.
