well, you collapse the three arrays into an "uber" array, called SM. so your original statement might be.. then use your number as an index into your outer array. chris olive, cio cresco technologies [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.crescotech.com -Original Message- From: Steve Vosloo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 29, 2001 2:21 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Referencing an array item But I have 3 arrays, so it will really need to look like: Application.SM1[n][element] Application.SM2[n][element] Application.SM3[n][element] I can't see how else to work around this. > -Original Message- > From: Christopher Olive, CIO [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, May 28, 2001 8:31 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Referencing an array item > > > ray has an excellent point. however, why not exploit the nature > of arrays? > if you make Application.Sm an array with three elements, each one > the arrays > sm1..3, then you can reference an element in SM(n) by > Application.SM[n][element]. you don't have to futz with string evaluation > at all. > > chris olive, cio > cresco technologies > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://www.crescotech.com > > > > -Original Message- > From: Steve Vosloo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, May 28, 2001 8:41 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: Referencing an array item > > > I have 3 arrays, which are assigned to the application scope: > > > > > > My custom tag receives a number (1,2 or 3), and with that I reference the > correct array.

RE: Referencing an array item
ray has an excellent point. however, why not exploit the nature of arrays? if you make Application.Sm an array with three elements, each one the arrays sm1..3, then you can reference an element in SM(n) by Application.SM[n][element]. you don't have to futz with string evaluation at all. chris olive, cio cresco technologies [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.crescotech.com -Original Message- From: Steve Vosloo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, May 28, 2001 8:41 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Referencing an array item I have 3 arrays, which are assigned to the application scope: My custom tag receives a number (1,2 or 3), and with that I reference the correct array.

RE: Referencing an array item
Whenever possible, don't use Evaluate, it's not that fast. In this case,
SM1, SM2, are keys in the application scope. It is faster, and easier to
read, to just do:
p.s. Don't forget the read lock!
