Re: MultiValue Visual Basic

This particular project is just using Access and VB, nothing else. The
Functions I have written just work on a VB Dynamic array (redim'd when you
insert or delete into/out of the highest-level attribute). Each element of
the VB array contains delimited ASCII text, the same as attributes in UV
files. I even used chr(253) and chr(252) as delimiters (because I have no
imagination).

As mentioned, the functions are called MVDCount, MVLocate, MVExtract,
MVInsert, MVReplace, and MVDelete, which replicate those same functions from
PICK. Like I said, though, it's just ASCII text in a VB Array - if I was
going to actually Read/Write to/from UV files, I'd use UniObjects.
