Is it possible to explicitly declare a dimdata array as global?

GLOBAL MyArray[]
DIMDATA MYArray[], 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

Thats it.

Hi SchranzOr,

DIM is always global !
from this it follows that

DIMDATA MYArray[], 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

DIM MyArray[10]

NO!
turn the debuger on, and read the warning:

warning : implicitly created GLOBAL  : MyArray

Thats true, NOW its global, but thats the wrong way!

! PLS ! use (for global):
GLOBAL MyArray[]
DIMDATA MYArray[], 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

and local
LOCAL MyArray[]
DIMDATA MYArray[], 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

DIMDATA does _not_ need an explicit DIM before. I already know the size, so DIMDATA does DIM + DATA.

ahhhh cool :D
