For the sake of simplicity and efficiency, I need to create a subroutines array. I've managed to figure out control arrays and variable arrays so far but this has me totally stumped. Is this even possible? What is the syntax? EDIT: any ideas on an array of functions too? EDIT2: I seriously doubt that it is possible, but what the heck, I'll ask anyways. The best thing for the program's purpose would be 2-d subroutine arrays and 2-d function arrays. So are multidimensional arrays possible for subroutines and/or functions? |

Apparently so, if you dive into some assembly. http://www.codeproject.com/KB/vb-interop/NativeCode.aspx This is much easier in other languages. |

This is possible in C via function pointers. I dunno about VB, though if it has support for pointers you probably can. |

@Tony, thanks but I have absolutely no clue what the code in that link means, even with the frequent comments. It seems rather overcomplicated though. Is there a method suitable for a regular high school student? I can't even switch to a more convenient language because the school only allows vb6.. old piece of junk. Crashes everytime I try to move around a GIF -_- |

Lots of 'if' statements. |

For VB6? Probably not. |
