Hi all. I have this array




Ok, i would to add the array cells just when i need it so i can use the "ARRAY INSERT AT BOTTOM" command. But this command work on single dimension array or i can use it in my example too?

I need something like that:


..but what of the 2 dimension gets the cell add? the first or the second?
Are there some ways to add a cell in the wanted array dimension?

Thanks

Just DIM it to the new size - all existing array elements should be kept unchanged.

X_X I didn't know that. I used the stuff I was talking about in alduce's other post (like, dim arr(10,10) : print array count(arr()) and how it prints out 120), and did inserting at element and crap.

:\

Quite some time ago we were pushing Lee for a REDIM command - his response was to extend the DIM command to do the same job. If you want a cleared and resized array now, you UNDIM it first.

The ARRAY INSERT * commands were modified long ago to stop them from working on multi-dimensional arrays - when you ARRAY INSERT AT BOTTOM on a 2D array, which dimension do you extend? What if you want to extend different dimensions at different times?

Anyway, those are the thought processes behind the array system right now.
