[RESOLVED] [Index was outside the bounds of the array.] But it's not

It's the .Net way... It's called Object Oriented Programming...

Well aware of OOP from my C/C++ days. I just don't see any way other than this to pass that many items through the constructor.

That is not possible... I pass the Main Form OptionsArr through a SetOptionsArr for the DLG.

Well pass your OptionsArr through sub new...

Public Sub New(OptionsArr(,) as Object)
    InitializeComponent
    CheckBox1.Checked=OptionsArr 'etc
    ‘ Etc
End sub

Well pass your OptionsArr through sub new...

Public Sub New(OptionsArr(,) as Object)
    InitializeComponent
    CheckBox1.Checked=OptionsArr 'etc
    ‘ Etc
End sub

I'll give that a shot, thanks!

I know what you’ve done now, and you should be making progress now.
We were all barking up the wrong tree for 31 posts because of unnecessary complications. If you’d mentioned the dialog earlier…

I did warn you that my solution would look nothing like your solution. I'm not sure how you're passing and retrieving data to and from your dialog, but it's incorrect... Have a look here. I can't make it any simpler.

Actually, it looks Identical to what I have.....

    Private Sub BTN_OPTIONS_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles BTN_OPTIONS.Click
        Dim oOptions As New DLG_OPTIONS

        'Load the arrays for the option dlg
        oOptions.SetOptionArray(GetOptionArray)
        oOptions.SetSettingsArray(GetSettingsArray)


        oOptions.ShowDialog() 'vbModeless

        If (oOptions.DialogResult = DialogResult.OK) Then
            'Restore our main arrays with any changes made
            SetOptionArray(oOptions.GetOptionArray())
            SetSettingsArray(oOptions.GetSettingsArray())
        End If

    End Sub

From the link....

Private Sub btnCustomDialog_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCustomDialog.Click

    'declare new frmCustomDialog
    Dim frm As New frmCustomDialog

    'show the dialog + display the dialog's userText property in a msgbox unless cancelled
    If frm.ShowDialog = DialogResult.OK Then
        MessageBox.Show(frm.userText)
    End If

End Sub

I have commented out the entire code in the dlg box. The checkbox's do not error at this point. I will backtrack and enable one function at a time till the trouble maker stands out.

Thanks everyone for your input.

What seems to be your problem now?
