Observe: set nestedlist1 to {{"a", "b", "c"}} set nestedlist2 to {{"one", "two", "three"}} set nestedlist3 to {{"do", "re", "mi"}} set nestedlist4 to nestedlist1 & nestedlist2 & nestedlist3 > {{"a", "b", "c"}, {"one", "two", "three"}, {"do", "re", "mi"}} It's also worth mentioning how to refer to items in nested lists. "one" is in list 2 of nestedlist4 > true first item of the last list of nestedlist4 > "do" There's something about those double quotes and double braces that always makes me think I need stronger reading glasses, especially with anti-aliasing.
