In Transcript a multi-dimensional array is created like this -
myArray["key1", "key2"]. AFAIK you cannot assign an array as the value
of another array element. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
What you can do is assign an array to a custom property set. An
example:
put "stuff" into myArray["Key1", "Key1.2", "Key1.2.1"]
set the customProperties["MyArray"] of this card to myArray
The card would now have a new Custom Property named "MyArray" with the
key: "Key1,Key1.2,Key1.2.1" and a value of "stuff"
