Hi john,Thanks fo posting, have you thought about initialising the array
first of all and then replacing array subsets rather than using the build
array function? Or is this not suitable? This method is usually much more
memory eficient and essentially better programming practice, but obviously
that depends on the application. The trouble is that creating a 2 -D array
of data in any language means that the width or depth will default to the
largest data set which is placed in, that is simply the inherent nature of
how an array is created and operated in memory. If you wish to pass a 2-D
array you could possibly turn the data into an array of strings (which all
take a default size for each element), and then modify it back at the other
end.....Is this any good?
