Referencing lists within lists

[Will Adkin]

Hi Franco,

Thanks for this but I should clarify, there is no window component being used here so there is no relevant $construct method and no $cfield

I have a list var as an instance of an object and I have added a column to the list with: Do iList.$cols.$add('QtyList',kList)	

I have put a number of lists into this column, I want to create an itemRef that points to one of them so I can process data in a different object...

Kind regards,

Will
