Hi All,

Having an off day.

Trying to print out the first or second line only, square brackets are not working for some reason, the output gives me the digit 4 in line 1 rather than the whole line at 1.

It’s because you are in a text value not a list value.

split text by ‘New Line’ to get each line into a list value, then you can reference each line by index.

I am just glad I wrote this article on Thursday, because I probably wouldn’t have even noticed. Was just lucky that it was fresh.

Talk about timing lol, cheers Mike, nicely written also.
Its the one major flaw in the docs that they dont include examples.
Will keep an eye on your Linkedin contributions.
Ever thought of a Youtube Channel ? You could stick me down as a +1.

I have thought about it, but that's a whole other ball game. I get the articles out right now, when I have a little extra time during lunch. Maybe in the future, but at least the articles will give me a good platform to build videos on if/when I decide to do so.

Thanks for the support.
