Arrays with UDT's

[Michael Mattias]

Just for future reference: "arrays" within UDTs are NOT arrays; they are tables.

None of the "ARRAY xxx" verbs work with them, and the current release of the compilers does not flag attempts to use those verbs on tables as errors.

(Maybe the next release will).

Thanks alot!!! :]

the Strings have to be fixed-dimension

#COMPILE EXE
Type tName
FieldA(5) as String * 50
FieldB(5) as String * 50
FieldID(5) as Integer
End Type
Global xName As tName

FUNCTION PBMAIN() AS LONG
xName.FieldA(0) = "my data"
MSGBOX xName.FieldA(0)
END FUNCTION

------------------

// Woops, subject was meant to be 'Arrays within UDT's'

I know it is possible to use arrays within User Defined Type's but I can't seem to do it without generating errors, I'm trying to do something like this:

Type Name
Field() as String
FieldB() as String
FieldID() as Integer
End Type

Hmmm any suggestions anyone?

Matt
