Description
Returns a standard JavaScript array converted from a VBArray.
Syntax
safeArray.toArray( )

The safeArray argument is a VBArray object.

Remarks
The conversion translates the multidimensional VBArray into a single dimensional JavaScript array. Each successive dimension is appended to the end of the previous one. For example, a VBArray with three dimensions and three elements in each dimension is converted into a JavaScript array as follows:

Suppose the VBArray contains: (1, 2, 3), (4, 5, 6), (7, 8, 9). After translation, the JavaScript array contains: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.

There is currently no way to convert a JavaScript array into a VBArray.

The following example consists of three parts. The first part is VBScript code to create a Visual Basic safe array. The second part is JavaScript code that converts the VB safe array to a JavaScript array. Both of these parts go into the <HEAD> section of an HTML page. The third part is the JavaScript code that goes in the <BODY> section to run the other two parts.

<HEAD>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript">
<!--
Function CreateVBArray()
  Dim i, j, k
  Dim a(2, 2)
  k = 1
  For i = 0 To 2
    For j = 0 To 2
      a(j, i) = k
      document.writeln(k)
      k = k + 1
    Next
    document.writeln("<BR>")
  Next
  CreateVBArray = a
End Function
-->
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JScript">
<!--
function VBArrayTest(vbarray)
{
  var a = new VBArray(vbarray);
  var b = a.toArray();
  var i;
  for (i = 0; i < 9; i++) 
  {
    document.writeln(b[i]);
  }
}
-->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JScript">
<!--
  VBArrayTest(CreateVBArray());
-->
</SCRIPT>
</BODY>
