Split Function Won't work on Variable.

[ctau]

I am pulling one line from a text file that is delimited by |. After I pull it in I want to divide it up into variables. I am using the split function but I can only refrence the first element in the array.


Input #ITEM_FILE, strLINE
STRING_ARRAY = Split(strLINE, "|&quot

if I say STRING_ARRAY(1) I get an out of range error but
String_ARRAY(0) gives me what it should.

You didn't show the code where you defined the variable STRING_ARRAY. Whenever I use the Split function I define this variable as a Variant, since it returns an array. I never have a problem with it. Also your array is going to be 0 based unless you're using Option Base 1.

Drop the String_ARRAY on the Watch window when the program is in break mode and open up the variable and see what's in it. This might help shed some light on the problem. Snaggs
