Array declaration syntax

[KidFix]

Hi

I'm trying to declare an array in a formula field, but I can't seem to get the syntax correct. Here's what I've got:

NumberVar MonthLookup := MakeArray[0, 31, 28, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31];

which raises an error saying there is a ']'missing.

Thanks in advance

I think what you really want is this:

NumberVar Array MonthLookup := MakeArray(0, 31, 28, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31);

Nest pas?

Thanks that worked a treat. Wasn't the syntax given in the help file though!?

Kidfix,

I think you are referring to the following:

NumberVar MonthLookup := [0, 31, 28, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31];

The use of MakeArray() is not required in this situation, although either formula works. Software Training and Support for Macola, Crystal Reports and Goldmine
