VBArray.dimensions

Non-standard. Do not use!
This object is a Microsoft extension and is only supported in Internet Explorer.

The VBArray.dimensions method returns the number of dimensions in a VBArray.

Syntax

array.dimensions( )

Remarks

The required array is a VBArray object.

Example

The dimensions method provides a way to retrieve the number of dimensions in a specified VBArray.

The following example consists of three parts. The first part is VBScript code to create a Visual Basic safe array. The second part is JavaScript code that determines the number of dimensions in the safe array and the upper bound of each dimension. Both of these parts go into the <HEAD> section of an HTML page. The third part is the JavaScript code that goes in the <BODY> section to run the other two parts.

<head>
<script type="text/vbscript">
<!--
Function CreateVBArray()
   Dim i, j, k
   Dim a(2, 2)
   k = 1
   For i = 0 To 2
      For j = 0 To 2
         a(j, i) = k
         k = k + 1
      Next
   Next
   CreateVBArray = a
End Function
-->
</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function VBArrayTest(vba)
{
   var i;
   var a = new VBArray(vba);
   var s = "";
   for (i = 1; i <= a.dimensions(); i++)
   {
      s += "The upper bound of dimension ";
      s += i + " is ";
      s += a.ubound(i);
      s += ".<br />";
   }
   return(s);
}
-->
</script>
</head>

<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
   document.write(VBArrayTest(CreateVBArray()));
</script>
</body>
