Hi,

I notice that the type /end type command isn't listed in dbc help files?

Isn't that the command to lets you make diffrent mix vaules like
string and numeric ?
how important is it to my learning of programming?

will I need to buy dbpro ? to get that command?

thank you for your time

if you use dark edit ide for dbc you can use User Defined Types. A UDT is an important concept in programming (VB6 has UDT's, C++/C#/VB.NET have Structures which are very similar) like a light weight object. A UDT is very useful but not mandatory to be a programmer, especially in db. Infact, user defined types are the only Obeject Oriented aspect of dbc/p language.

type Player
ID as integer
Name as string
endtype
oPlayer as Player

oPlayer.ID=1
oPlayer.Name="Joe"


or you can make an array of the type...
Dim oPlayers(9) as Player

oPlayer(0).ID=0
oPlayer(0).Name="Joe"

oPlayer(1).ID=1
oPlayer(1).Name="CMC 101"
