Okay, I *really* need this one answered...

When HyperCard passes a container, such as a field with 5 separate lines 
of info, on to an XCMD, in what format is that containter?  Could I call 
assign it to an array[1..5] of STR255 ?  This is what I really want to do, 
so that I can go through the container one line at a time, but don't know 
if it is possible....


Thanks ahead of time...
