Hi Mark,
Here's the problem:
The array expression:
MyArray(1)
looks exactly like the function call:
MyArray(1)
VFP thinks this is supposed to be a function. Fox will not determine that it is an array because you DIMENSION'ed in earlier in the code. If it could, there would be no reason for the EXTERNAL ARRAY directive that is needed in PRG's.
One way around, is to use EVAL() in the report expression:
EVAL("MyArray(1)")
