Hi:

I've got a string array that's initialized and filled.
After I extract the values from it I want to 'uninitialize' it so that if the app tries to access it again an error occurs (which I capture in a catch().

So, How can I 'uninitialize' a variable once it's initialized?

Hi,
    Why u need to access the variable once it is unintialized??
If u want to unintialize the variable once it is intialized,then y u r intializing it.

I don't see what different it makes . . .

OK, I'll try to explain. The user can do a number of things. I maintain a list of fields for them using either a Request.Form field or a string Array. If I've used the string Array then the next time I need them, they will necessarily be from the Request.Form. To make sure I don't fill them from the Array instead I want to make sure it's 'dead'.

Really, it was a simple question.
Do you know the answer? Oh, I'm using C#.

Not sure this addresses, not sure it works, but here are 2 possibilities. I'm not a C# programmer so this is pseudo code...

myArray= new Array

or

myArray =nothing

Thanks.

I'm pretty sure Nothing doesn't work in C#.
In older VB I could never seem to use it as a check.
If oMyObj = Nothing Then <<-- never worked.

I might be able to just redimension the array like you suggest though.
Thanks

The equivalent of Nothing in C# is null.

myArray = null;

Kep.

I can't do that can I?
If I create a variable, say:
string MyString = "";

Then I say MyString = null;
it'll crash.
