Data grid not showing array contents?

[dunbarx at aol.com]

I think you have to convert the array into a normal variable first. Arrays are not visible as they stand in the usual way.If you create one, and then say:


answer myArray


you will get empty.


Try it, using the "combine" command, of course.

Subject: Data grid not showing array contents?


Hi folks,
I have an array called tObjectArray, containing a list of objects, in the form 
tObjectArray[1]["object"]. So, answer tObjectArray[5]["object"] returns the name 
of object number 5. 

Meanwhile, I have a data grid 'dg Object List', with a column named 'object', 
ready to display this list. However, if I 'set the dgData of group "dg Object 
List" to tObjectArray', the data grid and its 'object' column remain resolutely 
empty.

Have I missed something fundamental here - an array level or data grid property, 
perhaps?
Best,
Keith..
