Oh boy do I have a big problem here and don't even know where to begin!

Lets start with the basic idea eh.

I have lots of arrays, built up when you add a product to your basket. I've got about 4 arrays for each product:

parts_Array = [part1, part2, part3, part4...]
description_Array = [partdescription1, partdescription2....]
price_Array = [price1, price2, price3...]
quantity_Array = [quantity1, quantity2...]

you get the idea...

when you view your basket to confirm your order I want to display a list of parts, each entry with its corresponding price, description and quantity loaded into a movieclip, which can be attached to the main timeline, and scrolled as neccessary.

Is this possible or should I just give it up now? I have no idea where to start so I'm really in dire need. Anyone who could offer up any suggestions would recieve my eternal gratitude! For an exmple of what I mean please refer to the little example image I've provided...

I've been forbidden to post the REAL fla as it's cost a fortune to develop and has been in development for months. Here is a quick mock up with an explaination of what I'm trying to achieve...sorry its not more!

Without any information on how you intend to add things to the basket, here's what I threw together. You'll probably have a million questions about things you want to customize.

OH MY GOD!! You're a genious Lindquist! You are now my most favourite person in the world. I may have the odd question about customizing it at a later date but I'll try not to annoy you with my ignorance too much!

That is brilliant! Thanks so much...
