I am having a problem with my program. I am using the SAVE ARRAY command, but it appears that it doesn't work with anything other than one dimension. I posted my code, please look through it to tell me whats wrong! Thank you for your time.

Try dropping the array dimentions on save.
Also save it as a .dat file.

save array "MyArray.dat",QsAs$(0)

Uhh, X_MEN... that's basically what biggie said... but easier to implement, to your credit

Yup, I checked, everybody's right about using 0 rather than typing in 2,5. Cool.

Ok, I have been gone for a while and I got the array to save but now i am trying to make a second program that will load the array. I am having to problems.
1. I can't get the array to load
2. I ccan't make my array save to the file name of my choice eg.
PRINT "What would you like to save your array to?"
INPUT a$
SAVE ARRAY - and this is where I can't figure out how to save the file name as the input
Thanks

The help states

To load an array

LOAD ARRAY filename,Array name(0)

to save

use the save array command with the same filename, the array name does not have to be exactly the same but must be large enough to hold the loaded data.

the help file for Dark Basic Classic is pretty handy and useful if you can figure out where to look for the help.

[edit] The file name should probably be in quotation marks.
