List saved in Dictionary is appending instead of replacing List content

Hi all!

I’ve been tinkering with Puzzles for some time with little difficulty and much enjoyment but I’ve finally run into a challenge.

What I’m trying to do is simulate the loading and saving of a set of objects for eventual hookup to a database (as project files). As part of this testing process I store my List of objects in a Dictionary on “save”, then attempt to load the contents of the Dictionary entry back to the List on “load”.

My problem is that when I do this, rather than replacing the contents of the List array variable, the loaded Dictionary content is appended, so that when I do my test load I get multiple iterations of the set of objects. Worse, some of my attempts to clear the List variable first make it impossible to load the contents of the Dictionary list at all.

If necessary I can provide an example app.
