Could u upload an array not a single variable from a file

Could u?

If you can read something from a file, you can also fill an array with what you’ve read.

What exactly is causing you trouble?

If you mean when you’re loading data from a text file or somesuch: load it as a string and explode it into an array.

Yeah you can do what Kalinium suggested, that’s a good method. Or, you could also try making an .xml file and then parsing the XML data into an array.

Having said that, I can’t find the AS explode function :S

What the heck is an array anyway?

It’s like a list.

MyArray⁰ is the first item in the list, which acts just like a variable, so you could do

MyArray = new Array()

MyArray⁰ = 1
MyArray¹ = 2
MyArray² = “Hello”
MyArray³ = MyArray⁰ + MyArray¹

trace(MyArray² + String(MyArray³) //Traces “Hello3”

Arrays are a pretty basic data type… there should be tons of info about them if you Google it. The thing that you’re looking for is actually a method of the String class,

String.split()

Say you have a bunch of data in your file. It could look like this:

data 1_data 2_data 3_fred_taco_1234_abcd

Whatever the data is, the important part is to separate each piece of the data with an underscore. Then, when you load that data into a string inside Flash, you can use the split function to create an array. Here’s what that code would look like:

var myArray:Array = myString.split(“_”);

Ok, now you have split all the little substrings (pieces of data) into an array. Now you can access the data like Kalinium was saying above. For example:

trace(myArray

³);
will trace the value

fred

to the output window.

Hope that helps :)
