steps after comparing arrays

[ledigeine]

Ok so I found this _ArrayCompare deal and have used it, what im doing is building two arrays. So one is based on a folder structure, a folder i have has folders named 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4 ect. I format those to show up as 91, 92, 93, 94.

The other array is reading from an XML file, each node in a section is named v91, v92, v93, v94 ect. I format those down to just 91, 92, 93, 94.

So the folder array will change, if a new folder is added like "9.5" then the _arraycompare will display that.

My issue is, what is the best way to detect the change? (id think checking [0] and if its = to 1) Then for the array compare the new item will show as 1 the others will be 0. So then how would i check each array item until the end of the array for any 1's?

Heres some shots of the arrays for example.

Use Ubound() to get how many indexes are in the array and then use For/Next to go through each one and compare - if I understand what you want, this will work.

Ahh yes i think i get the concept for that, i knew i heard of something like for/next i just couldnt remember the name. I was thinking... do while but i knew that wasnt right.

Thank you sir.

Do/While will also work, but the norm is to use For/Next

For $x = 0 To Ubound($arrayName) - 1 ; because the array index starts at ZERO

If $arrayName[$x] = 1 then

; your code here

EndIf
