Array of strings with two dimensions

[Discorez]

Sorry for the simple question.
I want to create array of strings with two (or more) dimensions.

Dim Values (3,3) As String
...
Values () = Array As String (("One", "Two", "Three") , ("Cat", "Dog", "Horse"))

But compiler shows error "Missing parameter"

What syntax will be correct?

You will not be able to use Array As String in this case. Array keyword only supports single dimension arrays.

You will need to use:

values(0, 0) = "One"
values(1, 0) = "Two"
...

Thanks for reply, Erel
But...
If the array contains two tens of values then I need write forty lines of

values(x, x) = "..."

I will use two single dimension arrays - it is simpler ))

Not neccessarily. You can always have your array in a single string (or a list and so on), with items coded with separator character in between. Then you can use regex.split inside a populating loop.

mc73, thanks.
Certainly, I know this way, but in B4PPC I can set multidimension array values, as shown in the first post.
And I thought that in the B4A there is such possibility with similar syntax...
In my situation it's simpler to use two arrays than to parse string values with RegEx.

Why don't you store the data in a file instead of inside the code?
