In VFP6 and up you could use alines(). Prior to VFP6 below is another alternative (and for short lists faster than alines) :

oDummy = createobject('Listbox')
with oDummy
  .RowSourceType = 1 && Value
  .RowSource = tcStr
  dimension arrElems[.ListCount]
  for ix=1 to .ListCount
    arrElems[ix] = .List(ix)
  endfor
endwith
release oDummy
