Hello,

I have been learning about arrays from some online tutorials, I have some questions if someone can help

If I have an array with names, address' & phone numbers in it, how do I search the array for the Name and then get that address & phone number?

Also can you do a wildcard search on an array? (Fred% for example)

I was also told you can give your array columns names by using the const word, is this true? how would that work?

Thanks Heaps

uhhh, arrays don't have columns. You can create a multi-dimension array if thats what your talking about, but there are no dimension/column names.

To search an array you have to loop through it. If you want to do a wildcard search you would have to loop through the array and perform whatever type of compare you wished on each array item.

If you wanted to store name/address/phone in an array, you could create a user-defined type or a class, and create an array of those.
