 		I have BB2D which comes with nothing in the documentation in TCP UDP and a lack of a good example for types. I wanted to know how to delete an element from a type array. Here is the code:

[
Entries% = 10
Type array
Field name$, value#, age%
End Type

; Create type content
Dim this.array(Entries%)
For i% = 1 To Entries%
this(i) = New array
this(i)\name$ = "Andres #" + i%
this(i)\value# = Rnd(0, 1)
this(i)\age% = Rand(10, 20)
Next

; Access the type
For i% = 1 To Entries%
Print this(i)\name$ + " is " + this(i)\age% + " years young and his value is: " + this(i)\value#
Next
WaitKey
[/code]

Thanks in Advance

 		delete this(i) should do it.

[edit] Actually I forget the above solution, I just tried it and it MAVs out. I will play around with it to find out another solution. [/edit]

 		I'm using a simple input command such as:

num=input("Number to Delete: ")
if num>0 and <= entries then delete this(num)

and it gives me an error.

 		I'm not actually sure but I think Blitz sees it as trying to actually delete the array, but not the Type instance.

 		Krylar would know.
I'll have to wait for his holiness to come down from the mountain for this.
Blitz3Dman would also know but since devcrunch closed I cannot find him.
