    dreamerzz wrote: so using CArray is the only solution... No, of course not. It's just one of many implementations. From what information you've provided, it sounds like you simply need to store the numbers in a text file. Then you could process them with something like:

    CStdioFile file("", CFile::modeRead);
    CString strLine;
    int nSum = 0,
    nLineCount = 0;

    while (file.ReadString(strLine) != FALSE)
    {
    nSum += atoi(strLine);
    nLineCount++;
    }

    TRACE("The sum is %d\nThe average is %f\n", nSum, (double) nSum / nLineCount);

          Yes, using the CDatabase and CRecordset classes.

            Have you single-stepped through the code to see which is the offending statement? Up until you know the statement in question, we can't be of much help.

                Yes there is. Using the new operator. At run-time, find out the number of records, and then allocate an array long enough to hold values you want to retrieve. For example, assuming that you've 50 records, the code will look like this:

                LONG lRecCount = 50; // you won't hardcode this, but get it at run-time from database
                double *pdblValues = new double[lRecCount + 1];
                for(LONG i = 0; i < lRecCount; i++)
                pdblValues[i] = collect value from the field here;

                One more thing, don't forget to delete[] pdblValue after you are finished with it. Hope that helps, Gurmeet

Once you go through those steps, not just glancing over them, you'll have a working example.

                      Can you please provide us with some code of how you are doing this. It may be that you are doing something wrong in your code. Gurmeet
