Hi, I am just beginning to program in Clipper 5.0, and I am having problem using array. In FoxBases, you can use SCATTER and GATHER for array operation, but I look through Tom Tettig's Clipper Encyclopedia and can not find anything other than AFILL(), which does not seem to be what I want. In DBaseIV, if I remember correctly, one can at least use CopyToArray to fill an array with a record information and AppendFromArray to save an array into a record, so I must have missed something. Any help is most appreciated. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Jining Han | Indiana University ---------------------------------------------------------------------

It is a trivial task with Clipper 5.0 and doesn't warrant inclusion in a computer language. tom
