>I did not put quotes around the "thisform.aarray"; is that a problem? At least, I don't think I did. I am not at home where the code is so I am not sure. I'll check when I get home this afternoon.

Absolutely that's a problem. If you don't put the quotes in this context, you're using the contents of the first element of the array, not the array. Note that you do not use the quotes if you set this in the property sheet, only in code.
