repeat with i=

Tha's interesting. I think you have to use delete.. of  instead
delete.... from . To me this is  correct.

   put "1,2,3,4,5,6" into theNumbers
   repeat until theNumbers is empty
      put any item theNumbers into n
      put n after theNumberList
      delete item (itemOffset(n, theNumbers)) of theNumbers
   end repeat
   put theNumberList

All the best. Paolo
