Arrayize and Redimensioning Already Dimensioned Arrays
Keywords: arrayize drop arrays 1638
Question:
I'm trying to use Arrayize to read an INI file, the contents of which include:myfiles=filename1,filename2and I want to grab everything after the equals sign, and break the filenames into an array.
I'm doing this in a loop, and it reads the first file OK, and the 2nd file OK, but then I get the error 1638 on the Arrayize statement.
Answer:
You're getting the error because once you dimensionalize an array, you can't redimensionalize it, unless you release it with the Drop function. In other words, you can't arrayize a variable that's already arrayed. Do a Drop to blank out the array, and then Re-Arrayize it.

Error 1638: Array Variable Assingment Error on line: array=Arrayize(f1,@tab)Hi: I am new to WinBatch! When running someone else script while he is away, I got above message! I reviewed the script and can't find what the problem is - Can you please help! Script is:

....
FileAppend("%templatedrv%\%mod_short%\axt3.axt","%drive%\pbms.%ver2%\%mod_long%\AOTFiles\pbms%mod_long%%ver2%_%lang%.axt")

elements = ArrInfo (array, "1")
handle =

"APPEND")

Thanks for your help!
Answer:
Maybe before this line:array=Arrayize(f1,@tab)change it to:
Drop(array) array=Arrayize(f1,@tab)If you are incredibly unlucky (I don't think so, but maybe)
If IsDefined(array) then Drop(array) array=Arrayize(f1,@tab)
