Michael, Split() only works on delimited strings. It is designed to break a string of words (for example) into an array of the words. In that case it would use the spaces as the delimiter. I am trying to take any string and put the INDIVIDUAL CHARACTERS OF THE STRING into INDIVIDUAL ELEMENTS of an array. If I gave you a string of "12345asdfg" and you pass that to split you would get (I assume) "12345asdfg" back in one element of an array. I need 1 in the first element, 2 in the next element, 3 in the next element etc. Go back to the very beginning of this thread and look at what I asked for. >> How can I turn a string into an array?
