How to index a string

If you have several values under one index (I guess this is called a string) how can you change it into one index for every value (I'm guessing this would be a list)?

Best,

Thank you for the help.

So nothing "" is something like "*" character in Windows? For example: *.pdf - all files with .pdf extension.

It ("") represents any character?

Sorry if I am too annoying.

You're not annoying.

The asterisk character ("*") substitutes for any character(s) when used as a wildcard. This means that it is something not nothing.

Whereas with "" I was trying to indicate that I had removed everything from the GH Panel.

In programming languages such as the C family and VB family it is used to represent the Empty String Character, which is different from the Null Character

Confused yet?

Also for future reference

In programming some people use the A = "" to initialise a string without adding to it. Also it can get used in conditional statements like:

Do While A <> ""

or If A = "" Then
