You are correct ehvbs. I should have more explicitly stated:

Notice that the delimited string method is really the same as the array method (for purely string data) with the array creation moved into the function.

I don't think that passing in arrays or dictionaries is very nice unless you want zero or many args. In this case, I want a string or nothing, but the best way to do this seems to be to use a string or a null, which is basically just the same as my original idea of passing in an empty string and testing for this.

So I will make the functions test for an empty string or null and this should then be fine.

Thanks

Hi humbletech99,

just in case you are interested in the question, why I proposed to use Empty instead of
"" (and now null), read
