Subscript out Of Range error

Post by JasonQuinn1992 »

Why am I getting an subscript out of range error on this line?

AboveAve(N) = 0

My code:


DIM AnnIncome(40) AS INTEGER

' Variables used:
' T1$ H1$, H2$, D1$ Print images

IF NumPersons(N) <2> 2 THEN
PovertyLevel(N) = 8000 + (2000 * (NumPersons(N) - 2))
END IF
IF AnIncome(N) <PovertyLevel> AveIncome THEN
AboveAve(N) = 1
ELSE
AboveAve(N) = 0
END IF
NEXT N
RETURN







Also, how would I print this program as a 3-part report

DIM the array to use it. It has to be sized if it holds 10 or more values.

Your code is incomplete. What is NEXT N doing?

NEXT requires a FOR statement before it.

I believe I corrected it:

My full code:

DIM AnIncome(100)
