After using VisualBasic, Java, JavaScript, PHP, not having dynamic Arrays almost killed me! :@)

At the moment I copy the entire collection from a 'master' array into a 'Collection' array on load / reset.

When the collection is filtered/searched further, Add the tracks to a'searched' array.

Once the filter/search is complete I re-copy these entries back into the 'Collection' array Which I have re-dimmed to the correct size, and destroy the 'search array.

OUCH!  I think I need to stop copying data and use IDs for the lists!   < Currently working on now / RO 5 Fixes!

I have also used the RegEx functions for generating tags from filenames, and REPORT and SORT for the obvious things :@)
