MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / August 2007question about arrays
I've declared a one-dimensional, fixed-size array and assigned values to SOME but not all of its elements. I know UBound() will return the upper bound of the array. Is there a function that will return to me the index number of the highest-numbered element **for which I've actually assigned a value**? Thanks. > I've declared a one-dimensional, fixed-size array and assigned values to > SOME but not all of its elements. I know UBound() will return the upper > bound of the array.

Just loop backwards through the array, looking for the first that isn't set to a default value, then bump by one.

Or maintain a variable containing the last assigned value (or equivalently, the next available value). -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. >>> I've declared a one-dimensional, fixed-size array and assigned values to >>> SOME but not all of its elements.

Yeah, if this is a frequently needed value, that'd definitely be more efficient. Signature.NET: It's About Trust! http://vfred.mvps.org
