Building a multidimensional array in vb.net

Question

I\'m trying to build up a multidimensional array which will hold two bits of info for each record in a database e.g. id, description.

This is what I am currently doi

Answer 1

The problem is that you are not initializing the array.

This should work, until i will not reach the limits set in the initialization.

Dim mArray(100,100) As String
Dim i As Integer = 0
While cmdReader.Read()
    mArray(i,0) = cmdReader.Item("id")
    mArray(i,1) = cmdReader.Item("description")
    i = i + 1
End While

But if the array limits are not known I suggest to follow astander's suggestion.
