Create array from unknown amount of elements

I am doing a regex match and I want to add the results to a 2 dimensional array where the array, but I do not know how many matches there will be and I don't want to set some insane length for the array. Can someone help me out with this I'm sure its simple.

Try this.

Code:

---

string [,]match = new string[numOfMatches, numOfMatches];

Hey,
if you have a unique value you should use a hashtable. A hashtable always needs a unique key and a matching value for it.

Heres an example of how to use a hashtable:

Code:

---

.
.
.
using System.Collections;
.
.
.
Hashtable myTable = new Hashtable();
myTable.Add("key","value");
IDictionaryEnumerator em = myTable.GetEnumerator();
while (em.MoveNext())
{
myKeyString = em.Key.ToString()
myKeyValue = em.Value.ToString()
}
.
.
.

Hope I could help!,

BTW: If you do not have a unique key to use try vector!

DevGrp - I dont want to have to loop through the matches just so i can declare the array and loop again. What I'm looking for is like a way to resize the array an not lose the values like VB's ReDim Preserve method.

Sgt-Peppa - thanks I think that will do.

Try using an ArrayList
