turn list into repetition?

[David Nelson]

I have text field which can have multiple lines entered; yeah I know, don't do that (smile) but I need this one because it is not regular field but global for me. If I type two lines in a text can I make a calculation repetition show them so that the first line is in rep 1 and the second is in rep 2 and so on? I know there is limit but that is okay. It is small number of items.

I search and find extend but I cannot make them work with what I need. I read probably 50 of them. Somehow it escapes me.

Try =

GetValue ( Extend ( YourTextField ) ; Get ( CalculationRepetitionNumber ) )

Look into LeftValues, MiddleValues, and RightValues.

Thank you Doug, I will study those functions!

We meet again, Comment. That did it. I knew I needed Extend but was trying to get the values inside the extend instead of outside of it.
