Hi,

I've needed FileWriteFromArray to use with 2D-array.

Thats why I've made _FileWriteFromArray2D and co-function _FileReadToArray2D.

By set an delimiter for _FileReadToArray2D, an 2D-array will create. In this case all lines from given file must have the same count of delimiters. Otherwise an error occurs.

Array[0] respectively Array[0][0] include count of readed lines.

;==========================================================================================================================================
; Function:         _FileWriteFromArray2D($FILEPATH, $ARRAY [, $iROWstart=0 [, $iROWend=0 [, $iCOLstart=0 [, $iCOLend=0 [, $DELIM='|']]]]])
;
; Description:      Write 1D/2D array to file, 2D with delimiter between every entry
; 
; Parameter(s):     $FILEPATH   - path/filename of the file to be write
;                   $ARRAY      - array to write from
;      optional     $iROWstart  - start row-index, default 0
;      optional     $iROWend    - end row-index, default Ubound(array)-1
;      optional     $iCOLstart  - start column-index, default 0
;      optional     $iCOLend    - end column-index, default Ubound(array,2)-1
;      optional     $DELIM      - delimiter for 2D-array entries, default '|'
;
; Requirement(s):   None
;
; Return Value(s):  On Success - Returns -1
;                   On Failure - Returns 0 and sets @error = 1 (given array is'nt array); @error = 2 (unable to open filepath)
;
; Note:             If $iROWstart > $iROWend or $iCOLstart > $iCOLend the values will be swapped among

That's gotta be slow.... ?

Try storing all the information in a string buffer, then write it when the loops are done for a bit more speed.

Also, If I'm not mistaken, if you look in randallc's signature, you'll see these functions (probably faster if I know him) than the standards anyway.

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

gcue,

This functionality was added to the standard FileWriteFrom/ReadToArray in v3,3,12,0. ;)

With _FileReadToArray2D from @BugFix you can specify start-,endrow and start-,endcolumn. I just modified his version:

this version builds whole string and write only one time to harddisk, so i hope it speeds up.
