Array-Voodoo

[Benny Liebold]

Hi,
I've by now reached a point at which I have no clue what's going on. 
Basically, I wrote some script for an E-Prime Experiment to select the 
stimuli to display. I used arrays to represent the stimuli, because the 
have categories from which they have be dran randomly and then checked, if 
the violate the mode of stimulus selection. So first, I declared my array 
at the beginning of the Experiment:

Dim EndArray(14,5,2) As String

The Array contains 14 Items that each have 5 attributes and are going to be 
2 times, so these are the array dimensions. I decided to just ignore array 
space "0" not to get lost in the script later on. Now, in a later script 
E-Prime is told to randomly select on of 14 items and repeat this process 
until  

'determine destination

RandomObject = random(1,14)


'Destination already covered 2 times?

While EndArray(RandomObject,4,1) = "1" And EndArray(RandomObject,4,2) = "1" 
'both are completed

RandomObject = random(1,14) 'draw again

Wend

This very easy condition check produces the following error - but I have no 
clue why. Why is it regarding the array as a function instead of a 
variable? I used this type of addressing arrays in other experiments and it 
worked ...

"Unknown function EndArray"

I am aware that my code ist not beautiful at all, but it works most of the 
time ;)

I would be glad, if you could help!

Regards
Benny
