Populating my array

[David P. Jessup]

Background info:
I'm attempting to populate an array with specific column numbers from a
database. I have another array(from a linked table) that has matching
column names from the original database.

CODE:
LinkCount=0
ClmCount=0
for each ofield in rs.fields
response.write "<th>" & ofield.name & "</th>"
if ofield.name = strLinkedColumn (LinkCount) Then
redim preserve eClmCount(LinkC ount)
eClmCount(Linkc ount) = ClmCount
LinkCount=LinkC ount+1
end if
ClmCount=ClmCou nt+1
next

strLinkedColumn is an array that contains the column names
eClmCount will be an array that should be populated with the column number
based on matching column names

My problem is that after the last matching strLinkedColumn = ofield.name and
my for each loops into any other fields, my eClmCount array is still being
populated.

example:
DB columns a,b,c,d,e,f,g
strLinkedColumn (0=c)
strLinkedColumn (1=d)

Running through my for each eClmCount would first get populated with 2, then
3 and I would expect it to stop there, but array continues to build but with
empty values so if I loop through strLinkedColumn in the above example with
a response.write "eClmCount: " & eClmCount & "<br>" this is the output I
get:

eClmCount: 2
eClmCount: 3
eClmCount:
eClmCount:
eClmCount:

I hope I didn't make this to verbose, but I hope I explained what my problem
is too =)
