Bruce,

I don't want to do that because that will clear the entire array while
the %realloc will increase the dimension of the array while keeping data
that has already been loaded into the array.

Let's say the array has a max of 10 elements.  
But I want 11.  
So I issue the %realloc to increase the array by another 10 so the max
is 20 (I could increase it by 1, but I'd rather allocate a block of
elements at a time rather than reallocate every time I need the array to
grow).  I'd like to initialize the new block but retain the data that
was already loaded.

Is there any way I can automate the initialization through a keyword
instead of using the FOR loop in the subroutine below?

I haven't done this with a dynamic array, but can't you just do the
following after the allocation?
C                   Clear                   ItmAry

This would eliminate the FOR-loop processing at least.  I would think
that initializing the array (with or without the FOR-loop) is your best
bet.
