Hi Armin,

Declaring the array worked. I'm curious.. since it does not HAVE to be declared, and works fine at runtime, why would the compiler complain at build time? By the way, yes, the line you mentioned does work (there are 2 columns in the array).

Thanks for your help, I've had that error nag me for a month!
