I am using arrays all the time and do the following when I want to 'delimit'
an array for a variety of reasons.
put userDataArray into pVar
combine tempVar using cr and tab
send "updateLog pVar"
--and on the other end
split pVar using cr and tab
put pVar into userLogArr
Split and combine are very fast in my experience.
Of course you can now purge pVar before sending by:
put userDataArray into pVar
combine tempVar using cr and tab
filter pVar with "*desiredDataRows*"
filter pVar without "*unNeededDataRows*"
send "updateLog pVar"
Another (array.combine + filter) technique is to:
set the itemDel to tab
put tab into t
get dataArray
combine it using cr and tab
filter it with ("*"&t& "toDo" &t&"*")
repeat for each line LNN in it
--maintenance task here
put "done" into item 3 of dataArray[item 1 of LNN]
end repeat
--discard (it) since we are done updating
-- assumes "toDo" is in a tab-delim column of the array element
