Dennis,
I am not Dan, but I would like to answer because I would love to have
array objects also.
I would say sort of yes to spreadsheet representation although I am not
exactly sure how the physical representation would look beyond two
dimensions.
I would suggest the array as a "container" of more fundamental
elements: field, button, etc.
I have seen another product use the concept of array for an array all
of one element type and cluster for an array of multiple element types.
Array object visual representations (might be simpler with attachments
sent to list):
One dimensional array:
Index in a box. Index can be hidden.
Element is in another box structure that can be resized as needed.
[ index ]| element 1 |
| element 2 |
| element 3 |
| element etc. |
or
[ index ] | element 1 | element 2 | element etc. |
Two dimensional array:
[ index 1 ] | element 1,1 | element 2,1 | element etc. |
[ index 2 ] | element 2,1 | element 2,2 | element etc. |
| element 3,1 | element 3,2 | element etc. |
I hopes this post makes some sense. :-)

And if we had an array OBJECT, we could subclass it to get what we

Dan,
This is an interesting concept. Would an array object have a
spreadsheet as its visual representation?
