How can I store two strings in a var and then later grab one of the two strings from that var?

EXAMPLE:

Mouse X

Mouse Y

var Place = Mouse.X + Mouse.Y

Set TextA (Place -> Convert -> Mouse.X)

Set TextB (Place -> Convert -> Mouse.Y)

var Place = Mouse.X + Mouse.Y

Set TextA (Place -> Convert -> Mouse.X)

Set TextB (Place -> Convert -> Mouse.Y)

->System| Set Place to Mouse.X & "_"& Mouse.Y

->Text| Set TextA to tokenat(Place,0,"_")

->Text| Set TextB to tokenat(Place,1,"_")

tokenat(src, index, separator)

Return the Nth token from src, splitting the string by separator. For example, tokenat("apples|oranges|bananas", 1, "|") returns oranges.

I would rather use an array instead of a String if possible.

Excellent thank you for the reply.

The information is getting sent though the multiplayer plugin and it's time sensitive, meaning I can't send the information separate thought multiple messages otherwise it could corrupt the data with other user inputs.
