ReDim Array - "Subscript out of range"

[koperski]

I am working on a homework assignment, my program is erroring in the last step.

During the step through all looks good, then when it comes to my print statement I get the error, subscript out of range.

This returns on an array value that is a decimal. I've read that "Subscripts in ReDim statements whose values are not whole numbers are rounded to the nearest whole number - subscripts outside this range return the error "subscript out of range".

Is there a way around this???

UPDATE:
I've multiplied the decimal to create a whole number, same error. This is not why the error is happening!

when I step through - it all looks good until I get to
DisplayData print statement.

Private Sub cmdDisplay_Click()
Dim numTeams As Integer
numTeams = countNumTeams(App.Path & "\ale.txt")
ReDim team(1 To numTeams) As String
ReDim wins(1 To numTeams) As Integer
ReDim lost(1 To numTeams) As Integer
ReDim pct(1 To numTeams) As String
Call readFile(team(), wins(), lost(), pct(), numTeams)
Call sortData(team(), wins(), lost(), pct(), numTeams)
Call DisplayData(team(), wins(), lost(), numTeams)
End Sub

Private Sub cmdExit_Click()
End
End Sub

Private Function countNumTeams(filespec As String) As Integer
Dim team As String, wins As Integer, lost As Integer
Dim n As Integer
n = 0
Open filespec For Input As #1
Do While Not EOF(1)
Input #1, team, wins, lost
n = n + 1
Loop
Close #1
countNumTeams = n
End Function

Private Sub readFile(team() As String, wins() As Integer, _
lost() As Integer, pct() As String, numTeams As Integer)
Dim index As Integer, percent As Single
Open App.Path & "\ale.txt" For Input As #1
For index = 1 To numTeams
Input #1, team(index), wins(index), lost(index)
pct(index) = FormatNumber(wins(index) / (lost(index) + wins(index)), 3)
Next index
Close #1
End Sub

Private Sub DisplayData(team() As String, wins() As Integer, _
lost() As Integer, numTeams As Integer)
Dim index As Integer, pct() As String
Dim fmt As String
picDisplay.Cls
For index = 1 To numTeams
fmt = "@@@@@@"
picDisplay.Print team(index), Format(wins(index), fmt), _
Format(lost(index), fmt), Format(pct(index), fmt)
Next index
End Sub

Private Sub swapData(team() As String, wins() As Integer, _
lost() As Integer, pct() As String, index As Integer)
Dim ttemp As String, wtemp As Integer, ltemp As Integer
ttemp = team(index)
team(index) = team(index + 1)
team(index + 1) = ttemp
wtemp = wins(index)
wins(index) = wins(index + 1)
wins(index + 1) = wtemp
ltemp = lost(index)
lost(index) = lost(index + 1)
lost(index + 1) = ltemp
ptemp = pct(index)
pct(index) = pct(index + 1)
pct(index + 1) = ptemp
End Sub

Private Sub sortData(team() As String, wins() As Integer, _
lost() As Integer, pct() As String, numTeams As Integer)
Dim passnum As Integer, index As Integer
'sort by pct
For passnum = 1 To numTeams - 1
For index = 1 To numTeams - passnum

If pct(index) < pct(index + 1) Then
Call swapData(team(), wins(), lost(), pct(), index)
End If
Next index
Next passnum
End Sub

index or Index is a vb kind of variable. Try something else. Initialize your variables.

I found my error -
I didn't pass the array in ReadData - I dimmed it as a string.

Sometimes I wonder ....
