SpiderBytes question

I just read up on it and it seems to me that currently it cannot be used for database access as structured lists cannot be passed...

Is that a valid assessment or did I miss something?

Thanks!

Yes, you are right: you can only pass simple data types like numbers or strings.

However, you can convert your structured list into a JSON-String (InsertJSON...()) and then convert it back into a list on the server side (ExtractJSON...()).

Thanks for the quick reply! I was more worried about having to maintain compatible structures on 'both sides'...
