The problem is that you're calling the array a different way every time. Check out this and see if it answers your questions:

Well, it isn't what you are doing with the data command that's messing the code up, it's your method of referencing arrays.

If you have the array test$(2,3), think of it as 12 seperate variables that just happen to be easily accessable with numbers. You can't just put something into test$(). Neither can you just put something into test$(2). You have to specify an exact location, such as test$(1,2) or test$(0,1).

Also, the values in your data statement are integers, and the array test$(0,0) that you are trying to read them into is a string.

I'm assuming you want to read the data into the array in order and then print it back in order. In that case, try this:

Scan through each item of the array and increase a variable each time you find that value:
