Hello,
I have a variable with about 1420 lines of text in it. Just under half are duplicates.
How do I remove the duplicated lines?
Thanks,
Andrew

Hi,
I got it under a different topic from 'dunbarx' and 'bn' (they got it from ...)
well, I got it from RunRev:

in Livecode go to
Resources -> Sample Scripts -> Text -> Listing all the unique words in a piece of text (this is a slight variation of getting unique lines)

So thank you RunRev

Kind regards
Bernd
