Goodo I'll give that a try -thanks again.

As an aside I find that with Simens help in the above I can move forward but another problem raises its head with this array business

I am accumulating lines from a text file in my  char[][][] array. It writes the first seven lines of an eight line file OK but on the last line it writes the last line in the correct place but also corrupts the first lines data?

Here is an output example printed after each addition

The data is fine unyil the last line
I produce the data with 

foreach (line; new LineIterator!(char) (new FileConduit ("data.csv"))){
      TableItem item = new TableItem (table, DWT.RIGHT); 
      fields = TextUtil.delimit(line,",");

Anyone have any idea why the data is corrupted?
