Hi,

Are you asking why i'm using structures in the first place ?
If yes, my initial idea (from python lessons) was to create something
like an empty array and then read in each file into this empty array
by concatenation. That way each element would have a unique ID which i
could use to access them.
But it seems like i can't create an empty 2-d array of a certain size
and number of files to be read ('numfiles' in my case).
When you say create a matrix, is this what you meant ?

I got the idea of using structures only from responses in my previous
emails on 'batch indexing'.
