Hi i have a data set with the following type of data (.csv - somma separated) being read in with spreadsheet read (set to string), it gives me: Waimea,21.625,-158.025,0,299Kahuku,21.625,-157.9,0,566Kaena Oe W,21.5,-158.275,0,130 ..... yadda, yadda what i want to do is turn this 1d string into a 1d string of the names at the begining. Length varies found it easiest to find the name length is to search for the first occurance of the comma, that gives the length of the name (+1) so i know how many characters i need to crop off the start. And thats where iv'e got stuck. Is there an easier way of doing this? ideally i need a 'delete from array' for a string operation, is that posible? Chears.John P.

If you would specify the correct delimiter (,) with the Read From Spreadsheet File function, you would have a 2D array and you would just use the Index Array function to get column 0.

change string to (string and array)

Solved!

Try sorting the original 2-D string array before breaking it up into a 1-D string array and a 2-D double array.
