[SOLVED] Help with Inserting Data to Empty Array Column

[BasementDweller]

Hi -- My code-writing skills are not good. I have an array ($aUsers) with a varying number of rows (averaging around 280 to 300 rows) and 13 columns. All column rows are filled with data except Col4, which is an empty column. I'd like to add "staff" to all Col4 rows. I've tried several ways to do this, and ended up with the script below. The trouble I have with the below is that although it does add "staff" to all Col4 rows, it moves every other columns' data down to start just below the row where Col4's data ends. So what I end up with is about 300 rows with no data in any column except for Col4, then an additional 300 rows with all columns filled with data except Col4. I'd like to see the original number of rows with all columns filled with the data they already have, and all Col4 rows filled with "staff".

For $i = 0 To UBound($aUsers) - 1
_ArrayInsert($aUsers, $i, "staff", 4)
Next

_ArrayDisplay($aUsers)

I hope someone can show me how to get this right. Thank you!

BasementDweller,

Just assign the value directly:

For $i = 0 To UBound($aUsers) - 1
    $aUsers[$i][4] = "staff"
Next

_ArrayDisplay($aUsers)

As you have found out - using _ArrayAdd adds an entire new row to the array.
