Question

I have the following code in VB6:

Dim frpdReport() As REPORTDEF

For iCounter = 0 To UBound(frpdReport)

    With frpdReport(iCounter)
        If .iReportID = iReportID Then
            fGetReportFile = .tReportFile
        End If
    End With
Next iCounter

And I converted to this C# code:

REPORTDEF[] frpdReport = new REPORTDEF[6];
 for (iCounter = 0; iCounter < Convert.ToInt32(frpdReport[6]); iCounter++)
    {
        if (frpdReport[iCounter].iReportID == iReportID)
        {
            fGetReportFile_return = frpdReport[iCounter].tReportFile;
        }

    }
    return fGetReportFile_return;

When debugging I get the following error in the for Statement – “Index was outside the bounds of the array.” And I cannot figure out why since the index of the array is 6.

Any help please?

Answer 1

Why not use the .length property?

 for (iCounter = 0; iCounter < frpdReport.Length; iCounter++)

or if you don’t need the counter value, a for each

foreach (REPORTDEF frpReportItem in frpdReport)

Or if you are looking for a specific item, use LINQ

REPORTDEF fGetReportFile_return = frpdReport.Where( fR => fR.iReportID == iReportID).Single();
