Thanks for that, the site made rev's arrays a little more understandable.
the method you sent me didn't seem to work but I managed to hack
together some code that works:
put character 2 to the length of leftVar - 1 of leftVar into L
put character 2 to the length of rightVar - 1 of rightVar into R
answer myArray[L,R]
This just strips away the quotation marks from leftVar and rightVar
which after seeing that I site I realized to be the problem
Thanks,
Otto
