REDIM takes more resources than DIM?

Cool, This is a good point, and something I can't quite off-hand come up with a reason why a variable can be used to avoid a numerically assigned array duplicate definition error...

Code: (Select All)

a = 5

b = 7

' This first half assigns a variable to each array and works.

Dim x(a)

For i = 1 To a: Print i; x(i): Next

Print "-----------------"

ReDim x(b)

For i = 1 To b: Print i; x(i): Next

Print "-----------------"



' This second half assigns numbers to the arrays, and errors out at line 15.

Dim y(5)

For i = 1 To a: Print i; x(i): Next

Print "-----------------"

ReDim y(7)

For i = 1 To b: Print i; x(i): Next
