Local text$[]=["abc","def","ghi","jkl","mno","pqr","stu","vwx","yz!!!!"]
Local count:Int=text.Dimensions()[0]
Notify count

dimensions() returns an array. didnt know about length. see it in the docs now though clear down at the bottom :)


tonyg(Posted 2006) [#5]
Length? Oh yeah, there it is!
Blimey, len(text) works as well as documented


CS_TBL(Posted 2006) [#6]
ok, tnx, SizeOf/4 it'll be. :D

Now I'm at home and not really reading things, but I did re-read this.
