Thank you Volko and Michael, also for the quick response! This should work for me.
Best Sylvia

I use this method a lot. And adding another loop around the for i loop allows for adding columns to the outputString for each row incrementally.

Subject: Re: writing results of different length into columns Dear Sylvia, I don't have a direct solution for your problem, but rather than writing each selection co-ordinate pair directly into a results table (I assume that is what you are doing), why don't you keep co-ordinates in a one-dimensional array? You have then somewhat more flexibility how to print the coordinates at the end of your macro. The code below prints the coordinates into a text window in a format that can easily be copied to Excel and split into columns where missing coordinates are shown as empty cells. I think that is what you wanted. The example has just two pairs of x/y coordinates (total of 4 arrays), but it could easily be extended to more pairs. You can also write a small macro function to dynamically add values to an array so that you don't have to define the length of the required array at the start of the macro. For examples, see: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.richardwheeler.net_contentpages_text.php-3Fgallery-3DImageJ-5FMacros-26file-3DArray-5FTools-26type-3Dijm&d=CwIC-g&c=j5oPpO0eBH1iio48DtsedbOBGmuw5jHLjgvtN2r4ehE&r=oU_05LztNstAydlbm5L5GDu_vAdjXk3frDLx_CqKkuo&m=SN__168OD-1g6I_woOqyXQGvv3oXxH-zYU1-THoPnSw&s=xplI8Y6HwkrgS-NF2dGYjnKXJiAE-JxoRvKJlJW322U&e=Hope this helps, Volko x1=newArray(2,4); y1=newArray(7,5); x2=newArray(1,4,10); y2=newArray(8,10,5); maxArrayLength=maxOf(x1.length,x2.length); title1 = "Result Window"; title2 = "["+title1+"]"; f = title2; if (isOpen(title1)){ print(f, "<a href="smb://Update" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;" class="">\\Update
