Bit of a problem - HELP

hey guys,

I am having a bit of an issue with a project I'm doing. Basically what
it will ultimately end up able to do is that it will accept set up a
dynamic array based on user input and allow the user to define the value
for each dimension in the array. It will output the High value, the Low
value and the average of them all. I seem to have a bit of a problem.
I can't seem to get a working function for finding the lowest value of
the array. If anyone could help me, I would be most greatful.

I can't seem to get a working function for finding the lowest value of

Private Function HiCard()
Dim intHiCard As Integer
Dim intIndex As Integer

For intIndex = LBound(ArrScore) To UBound(ArrScore)
If ArrScore(intIndex) > intHiCard Then
intHiCard = ArrScore(intIndex)
End If
Next intIndex

HiCard = intHiCard

End Function


I will start you off, and hope you recognize a pattern:

Private Function LoCard()
Dim intLoCard As Integer
Dim intIndex As Integer

intLoCard = HiCard() 'starting value

For intIndex = LBound(ArrScore) To UBound(ArrScore)
' and you know the rest....

You definitely don't want to include zero..

For intIndex = LBound(ArrScore) To UBound(ArrScore)
If ArrScore(intIndex) > 0 Then
If ArrScore(intIndex) < intLoCard Then
intLoCard = ArrScore(intIndex)
End If
End If
Next intIndex
