Dim paramstr() As String = Regex.Split("\~", "14~106~GC2~~700~0~~")

For i = 0 To paramstr.Length

this should have a Length of 6 if i use paramstr(6) it raises the error
B4X:
    Dim paramstr() As String = Regex.Split("\~", "14~106~GC2~~700~0~~")
    For i = 0 To paramstr.Length-1
        Log($"Par #${i}:${paramstr(i)}"$)
    Next

results in

Par #0:14
Par #1:106
Par #2:GC2
Par #3:
Par #4:700
Par #5:0

It HAS 6 entries. You need to remember that the index starts with 0 as mentioned two times now.

The 6th Item has Index 5

Hi PassionDEV,

It happens if you are coming from another language.
Though the .length gives actual length which matches with other languages, but the index starts from 0 so you will have to check up to .length-1.

Anand
