DIM and Associated Fields (GRX)

[John Esak]

I think your problem might be that there are only 8 fields in the a1)
associated field group.  (the others are a2)).... So, the array you've
overlaid on them is stepping you out of bounds.

I haven't looked closely at your code... Just read what you wrote and that
sounded wrong.

But, on the whole, yes, you can build an array over an associated field
group... And I suppose over an associated field group in a lookup file as
well.  (never did this, but don't see why it wouldn't work if the fields and
elements match up in number).
