tree view widget

[J. Landman Gay]

The array is malformed. The script should be:

on mouseUp
   put "Dog,Cat,Horse" into temp
   repeat with i = 1 to the number of items of temp
     put item i of temp into tHobby["John"]["Animal"][i]
   end repeat
   put "Dog,Tortoise" into temp
   repeat with i = 1 to the number of items of temp
     put item i of temp into tHobby["Jane"]["Animal"][i]
   end repeat
   put  "Football,Swimming" into temp
   repeat with i = 1 to the number of items of temp
     put item i of temp into tHobby["Willy"]["Sport"][i]
   end repeat
   set the arraydata of widget "Tree View" to tHobby
end mouseUp

Note the square brackets around each sublevel.
