erase array

[vasah20]

In my ASP Application I'm assigning arrays to Application variables. These arrays are defined by month, so every month a new Application-scope array is created. What I want to do is erase the previous month's Application-scope array, but I get a type mismatch error.

here's a code sample.

 sMonth = Month(date)
 Response.Write "isArray: " &isarray(Application("special_" &sMonth))
 erase Application("special_" &sMonth)

here's the output:

isArray: True
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a000d'

Type mismatch: 'erase'

/modace/specials.asp, line 25


Application("special_" &sMonth) is a two-dimensional array, i don't know if that will help you.

thanks in adv.

First let me qualify my statements by saying I'm not SURE this will work, BUT I would try setting them equal to nothing like:

set application("special_" &sMonth) = nothing

I hope this works!

Erase works like un-dim-ing a variable and you cannot undim the application object. Yours,
