Hello, I need help in creating a Dynamic array. I know how to make my program do it-

EXAMPLE- dim ship(5) as Ships

What I would like to do is to take a users input for the "name" of the array and create it while the game is being played.

EXAMPLE-

Input "What do you want to call your Fleet", fleet1

This is where I get confused, If Fleet1 is a string, how would I get the program to dimension using a string variable?

Any help would be extreamly appreciated.

You can't do that.
You should use indices and then you can have an array of strings corresponding to those indices, if you want.
Like so:
