has pointed us to the correct answer, in message 6, issue 214, vol 1:
http://lists.apple.com/archives/applescript-users/2002/May/msg00793.html

It's worth noting that the {,} and [,] list types have a little different functionality as far as adding goes - one cannot stick something onto the end of the latter. For example:

copy {1, 2} to a
set w to a
set end of a to 3

copy [4, 5] to b
set x to b
try
	set end of b to 6
on error errmsg
	copy errmsg to b
end try


copy {7, 8} to c set y to c set c to c & 9


copy [10, 11] to d set z to d set d to d & 12

{{"a,w", a, w}, {"b,x", b, x}, {"c,y", c, y}, {"d,z", d, z}}
-->{{"a,w", {1, 2, 3}, {1, 2, 3}}, {"b,x", "Can't set end of {4, 5} to 6.", {4, 5}}, {"c,y", {7, 8, 9}, {7, 8}}, {"d,z", {10, 11, 12}, {10, 11}}}



Regards,

Nelson
