>Record Set? Means a whole record? It can be stores in an object usen scatter name. So you can pass just the object.

I mean when using commands that apply to an entire table such as replace all
eg

REPLACE ALL myfield WITH myfunc('apple','orange','pear')

In this example I am expecting an output of a single value but I want to do the processing in the function using an array.

True but since I expect to be mainly passing field names as my parameter list it will do for now.

eg

myfunc('myfield1,myfield2,myfield3')
