Hi Jaime,
I'm not sure if there's a way to get your method to work, but I
normally place text-list values in its data block by inserting them
into it. ie, something like this...
db: [ key1 "value1" key2 "value2"]
lay: layout [
keys-tl: text-list data []
load-btn: button "Show keys"
[
insert clear keys-tl/data copy extract db 2
probe keys-tl/data
show keys-tl
]
]
view lay
Hope that helps.
