Hello,
Thanks for your reply. I'm not actually polling anything. I refered to the collection (not a technical term, just a set) of arrays to hold integers in an organized manner. They are more like mapping arrays and ordered integers. An anology would be an static array of of dynamic arrays like a list of variable length strings.

Thanks...

Dave

What kind of database are you pulling from? Will you be using SQL to perform

Subject: Very Large Array Storage

Hello,
I want to write an app that will require a fairly large database organized
in arrays. There are around 8500 integer elements to be stored in some 35
arrays. I thought I could have a static array of the 35 dynamic arrays
containing the integers. However, I do not know how to get all that data
initialized prior to the invokation of the rest of the app. How do I get
that data known to the app?

The behavior from a very high view, is the user presses the activation
hotkey, the controls are displayed in the dialog and the database is
available for use. I do not know how long it will take to create the
database, but it is subject to an easily implemented algorithm.

I am hoping to have this app as global. Will I need to use a file? If so,
where is the documentation related to the file system? I find only a
file/dir related document but there is no FSO in the GW toolkit. Help
please.

Using Windows7pro64 and WE 7.5.3.

Thanks...

Dave
