Index was outside the bounds of the array

Anonymous — Thu, 06 May 2021 10:53:27 GMT

hey everyone,

I have this code that reads the length of the array and also sorts the plane distance and for some reason i get an error

Index was outside the bounds of the array iLogic

Dim PlaneX = Double
Dim PlaneY = Double
Dim lenX = 0 
Dim lenY = 0

For Each xVar In PlaneX
	lenX = lenX + 1 
Next
For Each xVar In PLaneY
	lenY = lenY + 1 
Next


For j = 0 To lenX-2
	For h = 0 To lenX-2-j
		If PlaneX(h) > PlaneX(h + 1)
			temp = PlaneX(h + 1)
			PlaneX(h + 1) = PlaneX(h)
			PlaneX(h) = temp
		End If
	Next
Next
For j = 0 To lenY-2
	For h = 0 To lenY-2-j
		If PlaneY(h) > PlaneY(h + 1)
			temp = PlaneY(h + 1)
			PlaneY(h + 1) = PlaneY(h)
			PlaneY(h) = temp
		End If
	Next
Next

Hi! I thought VB's array started with 1, not 0.

Many thanks!

Think that error message means you are referencing a line in an array that doesn't exist.

So maybe you have 5 lines in the array but one of your lenx equations is asking for 6.

That's what I understand by that error anyway.

Thanks for your reply.

I have tried to delete some values from the excel and still i get the same mistake.

what I have also noticed is, the components on PlaneX are getting updated and when it's switiching to PlaneY it stops and i get that error

Hi! The syntax does not look like VB. Is it VB? You need to declare array like the following.

Dim PlaneX (10) As Double
Dim PlaneY (10) As Double

Many thanks!

hey,

thanks for the idea, but i have found the mistake.

someone changed some user paramters and they where lower the what the code was suppose to read, hence the error.
