Repeat in array with subselection

I have an array with

100    foo    data  
200    bar    data
300    foo    data

Is there a way to do something like this?

repeat for each key myKey in myArray where item 2 is "foo"

So all rows in the array with item 2 = "bar" are not considered and my result would be row 1 and 3?

Not the way you have written it. If you are in array mode, you must stay in array mode. If in the clear, stay in the clear. You have a mixed bag.

I would do this fully in the clear. After deconstructing the array variable with the "combine" command, and setting the itemDel to tab (?):

repeat for each line tLine in newClearVar
  if item 2 of tLine = "foo" then...

That sort of thing. You can then always reconstruct the array again with the "split" command.
