TriangleOne is a variant. Split extends a String, thus won't work.
// Test #2 (fails too)
TriOne = Split(TriangleOne,",")
I've got the same error message:
"Error: Type mismatch error. Expected Int32(), but got String()."
Split takes a String, and returhs a String array. The fact that
TriangleOne is a variant, split doesn't know about. The compiler will
convert the variant to a string before calling Split, and Split will
continue to do it's job with the string.
BTW: Why dim the array using 6 cells ? Also, why filling it
starting at cell 1 ?
[at last, I am asking myself why it works...]
Unfortunately, there are some inconsistencies where some things are 0-
based, and others are 1-based.
[after a simple test]: I can't believe it... it does not works when
I dim the array at 5 and fill the cells from 0 to 5... Incredible!
That's an interesting idea -- if Draw/FillPolygon gets an odd-sized
array, perhaps it should start at 0 instead of 1. If you'd like to
see that, please do file a feature request.
HTH,
