problem with flow of data - what to do first and next

Hi, I have a question that is examplified in the below patch:

My problem is that I need to clear the coll object before it receives new data - how do I do this?

Max Patch
Copy patch and select New From Clipboard in Max.

Is this what you want?
P.S. for this sort of problems its allways good to use the debugger

Yeah, I did make the connections you made in the posted code. My problem is that even though the two lists are the same in the beginning, I get two different kinds of data for number 0 in the coll:

0, 1 0;

and

0, 0 5;

... it seems like 0 5 are pushed from 0 to 1 in the coll, and this is probably because I clear the coll object?
- there is something wrong with the order of how things happen ...

wow, thanks for the trigger acrobatics in the above patch! I need to learn how to do magic with the trigger object - this is another step on the road :-)
