Hello,
Is it possible to resize an array and keep the index values previously initialized?
I have attempted to redim an array and this can only be done on local and private arrays.
Thank you.

From your description what you probably need is the PROCredimpreserve1d() routine. There's an example of its use listed in the article:
Code:
DIM array(100)
FOR I% = 0 TO 100
array(I%) = SQR(I%)
NEXT
PROCredimpreserve1d(array(), ^array(1)-^array(0), 200)
FOR I% = 101 TO 200
array(I%) = SQR(I%)
NEXT
FOR I% = 0 TO 200
IF array(I%) <> SQR(I%) STOP
NEXT
PRINT "Test completed successfully"
END
Richard.

Richard,
I did not consider the wiki page, I did thoroughly check the manual. Unfortunately I have limited Internet access at the moment while I wait for my new ISP to go live, therefore resorting to my blackberry device for a connection.
Anyway I appreciate your speedy response, this looks to be what I was after.
