Applescript result to multiple variable

Questions & Suggestions
#1

Hi,

In this example I am getting 3 results each separated separated with "", how could I get each result to be saved as a separate KM variable. The results can vary from 1-5+. I would like to save the result into KM as Address 1, Address 2, Address 3, Address 4 etc..

Here is an example script that show you how to do this.
You will need to adjust the script to fit your needs and variable names.

###AppleScript

## PURPOSE: Convert String to List, and output Each Item in List as KM Variable

--- THIS VARIABLE REPRESENTS YOUR RESULTS ---
--    (change as you like)

set resultsStr to "Some address 1,Some address 2,Some address 3"

--- CONVERT THE STRING INTO A LIST ---
set delimStr to ","
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to delimStr
set resultsList to text items of resultsStr

--- LOOP THROUGH EACH ITEM IN LIST, SET KM VAR ---
set numItems to length of resultsList
repeat with i from 1 to numItems
  set kmVarName to "TEST__Address " & i
  set addressStr to (item i of resultsList) as text
  log (kmVarName & ": " & addressStr)
  tell application "Keyboard Maestro Engine" to setvariable kmVarName to addressStr
end repeat
