File.au3 _FileWriteFromArray error

[allSystemsGo 1]

When writing an array to a file, I get this error in the console..

C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\Include\File.au3 (272) : ==> Array variable has incorrect number of subscripts or subscript dimension range exceeded.:

$s_Temp &= $s_Delim & $a_Array[$x][$y]

$s_Temp &= $s_Delim & ^ ERROR

Make sure that $aTableData is an array before calling _FileWriteFromArray.

[allSystemsGo 1]

Well now I feel silly..

[water 2,341]

What you should learn from this little problem is to check for errors after you called a function.

[allSystemsGo 1]

Well, I knew it was something in writing the array to the file...but seeing as I didn't write File.au3, I thought I'd ask the experts.

[allSystemsGo 1]

I have changed the code a bit...still trying out a few different ways to get my results. When I use _FileWriteFromArray, the file is created...but not with the whole array. The file should contain a 40 column array, but is only generates the first column.

Edited the code a bit, so you guys should be able to run it..

[water 2,341]

Before _FileWriteFromArray insert a _ArrayDisplay to check the content of the array. Does it contain all 40 columns?

[allSystemsGo 1]

Yes.

[allSystemsGo 1]

It seems to only be writing what would be the first three columns in the array.

It's because the function is bugged, try this update...

; #FUNCTION# ====================================================================================================================
; Name ..........: _FileWriteFromArray
; Description ...: Writes an array to a specified file.
; Syntax ........: _FileWriteFromArray($sFilePath, $aArray[, $iBase = 0[, $iUBound = 0[, $sDelimeter = "|"]]])
; Parameters ....: $sFilePath - Path of the file to write to, or a file handle returned by FileOpen().
;                  $aArray - [in/out and const] The array to be written to the file.
;                  $iBase - [optional] Start array index to read, normally set to 0 or 1. Default is 0.
;                  $iUBound - [optional] Set to the last record you want to write to the File. Default is 0 (whole array.)
;                  $sDelimeter - [optional] Delimiter character(s) for 2-dimension arrays. Default is "|".
; Return values .: Success - Returns a 1
;                  Failure - Returns a 0
;                  @error  - 0 = No error.
;                  |1 = Error opening specified file
;                  |2 = Input is not an Array
;                  |3 = Error writing to file
;                  |4 = Array dimensions > 2
;                  |5 = Start index is greater than the $iUbound parameter
; Author ........: Jos van der Zande <jdeb at autoitscript dot com>
; Modified.......: Updated for file handles by PsaltyDS, @error = 4 msg and 2-dimension capability added by Spiff59 and fixed by guinness.
; Remarks .......: If a string path is provided, the file is overwritten and closed.
;                  To use other write modes, like append or Unicode formats, open the file with FileOpen() first and pass the file handle instead.
;                  If a file handle is passed, the file will still be open after writing.

It's in the beta version of AutoIt which is floating around the Forum.

Works like a charm. Thanks!
