Could be because I dont really know how to sum up what I want to find as a search criteria. Anyways, is it possible to specify the size of a string variable in terms of bytes/characters? I thought I read some where you would do such a thing this way Code:Dim test1 As String*10 Another words create the string variable "test1" that can hold 10 characters only. I know the limitation is basic how much RAM use have but I want a much lower limit. Or is it that a string variable only uses as much RAM as the contents it holds? I am creating an array of a class and am trying to find ways to reduce the amount of RAM it takes up. Here is the class I am creating an array of. Code:clsLogFileArray.Constructor: Sub Constructor(Date As String, Time As String, tModule As String, Data As String, Extra As String, visible As Boolean, filterHit As Boolean) f1Date = Date f2Time = Time f3Module = tModule f4Data = Data f5Extra = Extra f6Visible = visible f7Filterhit = filterHit End Sub f1Date As String f2Time As String f3Module As String f4Data As String f5Extra As String f6Visible As Boolean f7FilterHit As Boolean End Class P.S. Not sure how you guys take a class in RealStudio to display in a nice neat format in posts where the code includes the function/procedure statement and all that. I jsut perform print from right click of the class and copy n paste.
