how to pick out specific item from collection

[mr_unreliable]

hi gang,

I would like to pick out a specific item from a collection.

I tried the emum items capability and it works fine, i.e.,

For $Match In $Matches ; (for each) loop through the $Matches collection

...

Next

To go one step further, in vbScript, it is possible to pick out

an individual item like this:

$Matches(1).Value

That is vbs shorthand for specifying a specific item like this:

$Matches.Item(1).Value

Both of these syntaxes work in vbs, but I couldn't get either

to work in au3b.

Note: I also tried square brackets, which didn't work either.

Am I missing something, or is it not possible to address an

individual item in a collection???

personally i don't use collections much, i prefer arrays....you could easily create an array and add the items of the collection to the array, so that they could be referenced by index.
