A Question on memory set aside for Zero

[SMcNeill]

It occurred to me, when reading it again, you say it's supposed to be stored as a two-dimensional array. So if you use the binary approach:

Code: (Select All)

Dim Arr(1 To 50, 0 To 44) As Single

ff = FreeFile

Open "DataFile" For Binary As ff

Get ff, , Arr()

Close ff



Screen 13

For x = 1 To 50

    For y = 0 To 44

        PSet (x, y) 'just example...

Next y, x

That would only work if your data file was in the proper format for that.  This isn't.  The way it has to be read is more like:


Dim Arr(1 To 50, 0 To 44) As Single
ff = FreeFile
Open "DataFile" For INPUT As ff
For x = 1 To 50
For y = 0 To 44
INPUT #ff, arr(x, y)
Next y, x
Close

Then you'll have to file in the array and can access each individual element as wanted.
