The curious part…
Which version did you go for, the simple or slightly more complex?
I used the "
simple " version as it did not require that I know how many elements are going to be in the array.

Were the comments, the ‘green stuff’, understandable?
Well, Yes and No. The reason I say that is that I am not very familiar with arrays so the parts I did not quite understand are due to my lack of knowledge and not undecipherable commenting on your part.

User defined data types seem to have become a thing of the past. This seems a pity because they still fill a need between temporary tables, which bloat, and classes that require too much effort and coding.
I learned about UDTs from you and Mile-O-Phile in
this thread. Excellent explanation on both your parts. I have to admit that I use it when I can! Very cool!
I wonder if you can still use UDTs in VB.NET?
Haven't yet tried anything yet with VB.NET. It always boils down to finding the time and energy to devote myself to learning!

So if you, or anyone else for that matter, would like to suggest ways to improve the green stuff (or black stuff) then fire away and I’ll try to do my best to clean it.
Maybe if we get a joint effort on cleaning it, Mile-O can bang it into the FAQ for future reference.
I do intend to understand it,
if and when I can find time.
Hopefully this weekend! At that point, I am willing to help out.
But I must admit that my knowledge is sorely lacking and I am probably not the best person for the job.
As for creating an F.A.Q. from this, I wholeheartedly support it as it will certainly come in handy to be able to refer people to a F.A.Q. for a similiar question!
