Following one  is retrieval part

Dim arryDtls

[b]arryDtls=Environment.Value("array1dtls")[/b]

MsgBox arryDtls.size

Run Error: Invalid procedure call or argument
Line (240): "arrayCheck=Environment.Value("arr1Dtls")".

Does this work,

Code:
msgbox Isarray(arryDtls)

msgbox arryDtls(0)

Hi basanth

It's not working as expected;
msgbox Isarray(arryDtls)------>False

[quote='basanth27' pid='25338' dateline='1383701270']
Does this work,

So, it means that it never came as an array. Can you use the IsArray to verify that it first stored as an array?

Gautam26:

I believe only a string can be saved as an Environment Variable. If you do not want to use a global variable, you will need to convert your arrayList into a string. Then later call the string variable and use split to reuse the array.

hth,
