Re: Constant arrays

Nothing really. I was just thinking there was a better way. Jon in his
article referenced a group field which I was thinking would work it only
works if you name each field. I like to sit around and play with ideas
trying to find better way to do things.

That's true, CTDATA must be global to the module. That's one
disadvantage to it.

There's no problem with referencing CTDATA in a procedure -- it's no
different than referencing any other global variable in a procedure.
But I do see the disadvantage of it being global. Thanks for reminding me.

That's not a problem with INZ, though... you still haven't told me
what's wrong with Jon's technique?

Unless I am mistaken CTDATA has to be defined globally meaning defining
static storage. An INZARRAY or
defining like I did means it is defined locally. Also didn't I read you
cannot reference CTDATA in a subprocedure?
