I'm struggling with something I'm sure I've missed... I have a 1-dimensional array and I'm populating a ListBox using an _ArrayToString function within the GUICtrlSetData function. If I perform an _ArrayReverse on the array before I execute the _ArrayToString function within the GUICtrlSetData, the list still populates in a sorted order. If I do an _ArrayDisplay, it's showing to be reversed but when I populate the ListBox, it's still sorted! _GetDirectoryListing() _ArrayReverse($aMasterJobList) _ArrayDisplay($aMasterJobList) GUICtrlSetData($hJobList, _ArrayToString($aMasterJobList)) Am I missing a subtle (or not-so subtle) flag somewhere?

I'm trying to populate a a list guide box with an array of data, but Ian can't seem to get it functional. I read another that said you needed to convert the array to a string prior to using guictrlsetdata and both array to string and guictrlsetdata use | as the delimiter I could do something like this: Guictrlsetdata($Resultlist, _arraytostring ($aresult) ) But it did not work. I also tried to just view it in a massage box as well, but the arraytostring command keeps spitting out blanks. I've even tried to transpose the array (Thinking the vertical might be the issue because it's using @crlf as a delimiter). I've also tried a simpler array (I'm grabbing data from a dB using a ado connection) and it seems to work fine. I'm including my code for additional context.
