if i had character variables stored in an array[], and want to print it out, how do i get rid of the “commas” in between the text’s.  
eg

myArray[12] //contains “hello there” stored as seperate characters.

//where outFile is the text display box.

outFile = myArray;

//gives:-

h,e,l,l,o,t,h,e,r,e

//how do i get roung this so that it prints

hello there

//with no comma’s

Just as a notice, there’s a method that can do that for you:

```auto
myArray=["h","e","l","l","o"," ","t","h","e","r","e"];
a=myArray.join("");
trace (a);

```

pom :cool:
