Hi,

Here is what I do, I put the array into an variable using the csuffix and add a 
) after the array variable tag.  Then I use the replace function looking for 
the ",)" that is a the end of the comma delimited list.

Example:


<@ASSIGN NAME='vcommalist' VALUE='<@VAR varray[*,1] SCOPE="Request" type="text" 
aprefix="" asuffix="" rprefix="" rsuffix="" cprefix="" csuffix=",">)' 
SCOPE='request'>
<@ASSIGN NAME="vcommalist" VALUE="<@REPLACE STR='@@request$vcommalist' 
FINDSTR=',)' REPLACESTR=')'>" SCOPE="request">

Ted
