Re: Testing An Array

Robert,

Why don't you just sort the array and check if the first element is blank?.
On the other hand, unless the array is very big a loop gets done quite
quickly.

Greetings from the sunny south.



I need to test an array to determine if there are any non-blank
elements.
In fixed format I recall that I could test the whole array. That seems
not to work in /Free format.



What would I need to make this concept work:



If MyArray <> *Blanks;



I don't want to spin through the numerous individual elements. Any
suggestions on how to make this happen?





Thanks,
