A section of code will repeat many times in my app and each time I'd like to reset my array contents to 0. I thought "empty array" sounds like the right kind of command to use. But when I use it my app locks up. I have tried:

empty array MyArray()
empty array MyArray(0)
empty Array MyArray(16384)

They all have the same freeze effect on the computer.

Does this function work? Would I be better of doing:

for i = 1 to 16384
MyArray(i)=0
next i

There seems to be problems with a few of these commands - use my linklist plug-in instead...

Good news everyone! I really am THAT good...

Using EMPTY ARRAY is much like using UNDIM. It doesn't clear the entries, it deletes the array.

For what you want to do, this should work:

UNDIM MyArray()
DIM MyArray(16384)
