Type Mismatch.

I'm slightly confused... I'm well into making a channel, and when I added some code, I get a type mismatch error.

Here's my Initialization:

Dim Xn[9, 9]
Dim Yn[9, 9]
for y = 1 to 9
for x = 1 to 9
Orig[x, y] = Int(Val(Mid(OrigStr,z,1)))
if(Orig[x, y] > 0) then
Xn[x, Orig[x, y]] = 1
Yn[y, Orig[x, y]] = 1
else
Xn[x, Orig[x, y]] = 0
Yn[y, Orig[x, y]] = 0
end if
...


That all seems to work perfect. However when I try to increment a position, it crashes with a type mismatch error on line:

Xn[mx, Play[mx, my]] = Xn[mx, Play[mx, my]] + 1


And yet this line works flawlessly:

Play[mx, my] = Play[mx, my] + 1


Any ideas why?

Re: Type Mismatch.

Here's something stranger...


for y = 1 to 9
for x = 1 to 9
Xn[x, Orig[x, y]] = 0
Yn[y, Orig[x, y]] = 0
if(Orig[x, y] > 0) then
Xn[x, Orig[x, y]] = Xn[x, Orig[x, y]] + 1
Yn[y, Orig[x, y]] = Yn[y, Orig[x, y]] + 1
end if
end for
end for
Xn[x, Orig[x, y]] = Xn[x, Orig[x, y]] + 1


It runs through the loop just fine. But fails on the line outside the loop...
Do I have a defective box???

Re: Type Mismatch.

In the words of Homer Simpson....

"Doh!"

I wasn't initializing correctly, so anything that wasn't initialized, was set to "invalid" and you can't add 1 to "invalid"... :roll:
