Hi, Guys...
I am trying to add my parsed string from my text file into
a multidimension array...
Here is my input data from the text file...
(Once again, I just broke it into multiple lines just for your eyes...)
---
TotalSymbols=4&
Symbols=
12!21!23!30!34!40!42!44!51!53~
11!13!22!30!31!33!34!41!43!51!53!62~
12!21!23!30!34!40!44!51!52!53~
12!21!23!30!34!40!42!44!51!53
and this is the format I want it to be in Director as an array...
-----
Symbols[1] = [12, 21, 23, 30, 34, 40, 42, 44, 51, 53]
Symbols[2] = [11, 13, 22, 30, 31, 33, 34, 41, 43, 51, 53, 62]
Symbols[3] = [12, 21, 23, 30, 34, 40, 44, 51, 52, 53]
Symbols[4] = [30, 40, 21, 51, 12, 42, 23, 53, 34, 44]
I think I kinda did parsing part and now I am trying to write this
string into an array, and I am getting an "Index out of range" error...
from line : Symbols[i].addAt(thisSpot, theData)
I hope this is the basic thing I am missing here... Sorry... I've been
up for almost 20 hours and my head hurts... I guess I should have gone
to sleep when I wanted... :(
Can someone tell me what is wrong with the code below???
I also have a question on this matter...
Right now I have just four arrays, but it will grow in numbers which
I do not know the size yet... And... AS you can see, not all of the
arrays have same length... Some has 10 some has 12... There is no
set value... Would it matter when I program it in Director???
Thanks...

set Symbols = []
set thisSpot = 1
set newVar = false
set numChar = the number of chars in newVarData2
repeat with i = 1 to TotalRecords
repeat with j = 1 to numChar
-- after running this repeat loop,
-- all the data will be stored into the list
currentChar = chars(newVarData2, j, j)
set theData = theData & currentChar
if currentChar = "!" then
delete char the number of chars in theData of theData
set theData = theData & ","
end if
if currentChar = "~" then
delete char the number of chars in theData of theData
Symbols[i].addAt(thisSpot, theData)
thisSpot = thisSpot + 1
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
Symbols.addAt(i, Symbols[j])
end repeat
end
