write to txt file: subscript out of range

hey all


i got this problem:

VB Code:

Dim A As Integer
Dim RijNamen(40) As String

VB Code:

A = 0
Open File For Output As #1
 For A = 1 to 80
  Select Case A
   Case Is < 30
    Write #1, RijTijden(A)
   Case Is > 30 And < 41
    Write #1, RijHighScores(A - 30)
   Case Is > 40
    Write #1, RijNamen(A - 40)        '<--- here's the error
 Next
Close #1

everything i put in the array RijNamen are dimmed as strings, but i guess the problem is there, i have no doubt where it could be

First of all you aren't handling when A is exactly 30 or exactly 40. Rewrite it this way

VB Code:

A = 0' not needed
Open File For Output As #1
 For A = 1 to 80
  Select Case A
   Case Is > 40 ' 41 to 80
    Write #1, RijNamen(A - 40)
   Case Is > 30 ' 31 to 40
    Write #1, RijHighScores(A - 30)
   Case Else ' 0 to 30
    Write #1, RijTijden(A)
 Next
Close #1

Put a breakpoint on the A = 1 to 80 line and step through the code and see what A is when it fails.

Hi,

Martin is on the mark but this may help as well.

VB Code:

For A = 1 To 80
        Select Case A
            Case Is <= 30
                Write #1, RijTijden(A)
            Case 31 To 40
                Write #1, RijHighScores(A - 30)
            Case Is > 40
                Write #1, RijNamen(A - 40)
            Case Else
        End Select
Next A

Have a good one!

i changed to much to know if it's good now
but i have a new problem:
if i have a variable like this: VarLine3 = "text"
how can i get the " away?

use Print instead of Write.
