I wrote this in Fox 2.6, but I don't think the version should matter

FUNCTION ADDCOL
PARA pArray
PRIVATE ALL

nRows = ALEN(pArray,1)
nCols = ALEN(pArray,2)

DIME pArray[nRows * (nCols+1)]

FOR I = 1 to nRows - 1
=AINS(pArray,I + I*nCols)
ENDFOR

DIME pArray[nRows,nCols+1]



The result is an added column with values of .F.
I think that is what you needed
