problems with String Array

Dim NumSlides As Integer = 0
Dim SlideArray() As String
SlideArray(NumSlides) = MyData 'Error breaks on this line
MessageBox.Show(SlideArray(NumSlides))


This code executes and I get this error on the 3rd line of that code:

"Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

Any ideas?

you need to initialize the array. eg:

Dim NumSlides As Integer = 0
Dim SlideArray(NumSlides) As String
SlideArray(NumSlides) = MyData
MessageBox.Show(SlideArray(NumSlides))

you need to initialize the array. eg:

Dim NumSlides As Integer = 0
Dim SlideArray(NumSlides) As String
SlideArray(NumSlides) = MyData
MessageBox.Show(SlideArray(NumSlides))


is this new for .NET or am I just stuck in Macromedia's world...?

there are many things which are very different in .NET , but once you get used to them you will see how great .NET is :)
