There is no "array" control type so I'm not sure what you are trying to do. A text field is not an array but you can put data that looks like an array into it. And logically, it makes no sense to have data from a subform which by definition is the many-side of a 1-many relationship on the main form so that completes my confusion. If you can post a picture of the form, that might clarify what you are trying to accomplish.
