…thanks for the response, Peter.

Weirdly, using this form…

put comma & tInsert after line tRecord of tRecords

... Compiles OK but then fails on run with (Chunk: error in range start expression)

Maybe I’ll try building into a new variable line by line, instead of appending to lines in the existing container.
Best,
Keith..
