Amazingly (given that I just installed the DBPro Demo yesterday, and am simply trying to convert an old DB program) I have found another problem, is this just me or does the problem below happen to the rest of you too.

Basically the following bit of code is supposed to show the same number for each of the variable i(1), j(1) and k, but instead it, quite astoundingly, gives 3 different answers, with only k being correct! :-

TYPE Col
colour AS DOUBLE INTEGER
ENDTYPE
DIM j(1) AS Col
DIM i(1) AS DOUBLE INTEGER
k AS DOUBLE INTEGER

i(1) = RGB(255,255,255)
j(1).colour = RGB(255,255,255)
k = RGB(255,255,255)
print "RGB = " + str$(RGB(255,255,255))
print "i(1) = " + str$(i(1))
print "j(1) = " + str$(j(1).colour)
print "k = " + str$(k)

I think there are issues with the array code and this may be causing the problem.

For example the following code produces 0 as output:




And this code:



Won't even compile for me. I get a "cannot perform 'dword' cast on type '@test$(0)' at line 7" error.

I'm sure it'll be fixed in a patch.

I certainly hope this and all the other problems I have come across (such as the Select...case statements not working with strings, also posted here) are fixed soon.

These are pretty fundamental problems and frankly I don`t see me buying the full version until I know they are fixed!
