How to retrieve ArrayList saved in Environment Variable

[Gautam26]

Hi
I created an ArrayList to store dynamic values and saved it in Environment variable.
While retrieving the ArrayList, I am facing Object mismatch exception.

Can any one help me?

Hi,
sorry for the delay to post the code. It's as below

Code:

Set array1 = CreateObject( "System.Collections.ArrayList" )
for i=0 to 10
array1.Add(test case name coming from Excel)
Exit for
Environment.Value("array1dtls")=array1

Following one  is retrieval part
Dim arryDtls
[b]arryDtls=Environment.Value("array1dtls")[/b]
MsgBox arryDtls.size

I am getting exception at "arryDtls=Environment.Value("array1dtls")" & Exception is as below

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

Please, advise me what the needful can be done

Does this work,

Code:

msgbox Isarray(arryDtls)
msgbox arryDtls(0)

Hi basanth

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

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.
