>>>>Daniel -- I am not aware of a native function to handle this, but one note that may help: your code will run more quickly if you declare a local array, do all the adding into that array, and then coppy that array at the end into the form level array. VFP is relatively slow at moving data into and out of form-property arrays, at least compared to local arrays. Even the later ACOPY probably won't cost you as much time as you will save with a local array.

But in this case, a one-shot deal, it's probably a wasted effort. Afterall, you can only split a frog hair so fine. :)


About 2000 elements in the array, once it's built. I was actually able to measure a (negligible) difference between redimesioning the array to add each element, and having it predefined larger, and only redimensioning at the end.

Thanks.
