<font color="#cc0000"><font>Thanks for the info but two issues that pop up when I try this are <br>1) when I use zexy date and time object there's no option for leading zeros if I split everything out as floats.<br>2) when I pipe the messagebox <br>
[ $1$2$3$4$5$6$7$8$9$10$11$12$</font></font>13$14 ] into the <br>|<br>add $1 <br>|<br>textfile<br><br>it just prints 0; can a messagebox be used as a variable in the add object for textfile if not what should I replace it with. Thanks again<br>
<br>PS I'm using pd 0.42.5 extended on ubuntu 10.04 64bit<br><br>Aloha<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Oct 2, 2012 at 12:35 AM, i go bananas <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:hard.off@gmail.com" target="_blank">hard.off@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

so might be best just to split everything into individual floats, like:<br>
<br>[ 1 9 7 8 0 7 2 9 0 9 3 0 2 1 (<br>
<br><br>and then just feed that into a big compound message like<br><br>[ $1$2$3$4$5$6$7$8$9$10$11$12$13$14 (<br><br><br>that way you get all the zeroes as well<br>
