Did I really destroy the array?

[dinodod]

Just wanting to confirm that what I am doing is really destroying the array (So not to be a resource hog). Or is there a better method?

Thanks!

For $count = 1 to 20
        $var = StringMid($Wood_Stock[0], $count, 1)
        If $var = '>' then 
            $Wood_Stock = StringTrimLeft ( $Wood_Stock[0], $count )
            msgbox(0,"",$Wood_Stock & "-" & IsArray($Wood_Stock))
            ExitLoop
        EndIf
    Next
    Exit

This should be your answer

msgbox(0,"",$Wood_Stock & "-" & IsArray($Wood_Stock))

actually,

dim $WoodStock [10]

$WoodStock[1] = Bla Bla

can be completely removed by this

$WoodStock = ""

8)

Yes but your code has already told you that.

Might be simpler to do

$pos = stringinstr($wood_stock[0],'>')
if $pos > 0 then $wood_stock = stringTrimleft($woodstock[0],$pos)

Nice. That really helps trim my code.
